Steep rises in levies mean a person on the average wage with one car will pay $1300 to ACC each year - $180 more than they do now.The increases, approved by the Government yesterday, are well below the Accident Compensation Corporation's initial proposed rises.But everyone will be affected by them. Car registration costs will increase $30 a year, and workers on the average wage of $49,500 will pay about $150 a year more than they do now.ACC Minister Nick Smith said the Government decided on lower rises than those the corporation proposed because it wanted to show some mercy to households and businesses struggling in difficult times.But he said he could not rule out further increases, as those announced yesterday would halt the deterioration in ACC's books but were not enough to completely rectify its cost woes.Dr Smith said the increases were significant but fair, and asked the public to show some understanding.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">The father of murder victim Sophie Elliott was forced to read a heavily censored version of his victim impact statement to her killer in court. Gil Elliott has revealed police gave him a statement with entire sections crossed out with a marker pen at the judge's request the night before Clayton Weatherston's sentencing. Mr Elliott is angry about the censorship, saying most of what was taken out was innocuous in a legal sense but very important to Sophie's family. It meant he did not get to "have a crack" at Weatherston, who stabbed his daughter 216 times. Mr Elliott now wants a law change to give victims more freedom when reading their statements. The Sensible Sentencing Trust is backing his call, and has directed its members to refuse to alter their impact statements until the law is changed. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">

Watchdog warns on 'invasive' search law <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> Privacy Commissioner Marie Shroff has warned Parliament that a proposed law widening enforcement authorities' powers of search and surveillance needs more safeguards. She says the Search and Surveillance Bill gives rise to "significant privacy issues". "It does cover activities that are instrinsically invasive. One just can't get away from that." Mrs Shroff said confidence that telecommunications were secure from intrusion "is an essential feature of private life and the ability to communicate freely".

Mr. Mahoney knew the people, the lands and the animals near his house except for this object that might had ate his growing vegetables. Could the "BUEOO" be Bigfoot? No one knows for sure.

Australians and New Zealanders overseas generally band together but the Australian Prime Minister had a rather unusual backpacker knocking on his door yesterday morning - Kiwi Prime Minister John Key. Mr Key woke at the start of a busy day that included meeting President Barack Obama and several other world leaders, and found he couldn't shower or shave because the water in his hotel was off. Options were a 20-minute ride uptown to the New Zealand ambassador's residence or accepting an offer from the nearby hotel where Australia's leader, Kevin Rudd, was staying.

In Canberra The vast dust clouds that were driven by violent storms that turned the skies of New South Wales and Queensland red yesterday may be a clue of things to come. Weather forecasters are predicting another storm front for tomorrow, and warn that the land dehydrated by a decade of drought could produce a series of storms ripping topsoil from Australia's fragile interior. There have already been three large dust storms in the past three weeks in the region around South Australia's vast Lake Eyre - where much of yesterday's dust was generated - and last week clouds of granulated red earth were blown to New Zealand.
