Challenging a government corporation rarely is. But MAGNZ remains committed
Update on the interim injunction
Last week we said the interim injunction was always going to be a high bar. Today’s result confirms that.
The High Court has declined to grant the interim order stopping the 1 July ACC motorcycle levy increases from taking effect.
The Court has not yet released its reasons. Those reasons are still to follow. Once they are received, Mark Chapple will be able to consider whether there are reasonable grounds for an appeal.
But the good news is this:
the judicial review is still going ahead.
the judicial review is still going ahead.
That is the main case. That is where the lawfulness of ACC’s levy-setting process, methodology, recommendations, and decision-making will be tested properly.
Today is a minor setback, but it is not a defeat.
Mark has taken on a difficult case, under huge pressure, on behalf of motorcyclists across New Zealand. He deserves our thanks, our respect, and our continued support.

Every name matters. Every rider who stands with Mark strengthens the message that motorcyclists are not facing this alone.
It may not put you physically in the courtroom beside him — but it sends the next best message: we are standing with him.
This was never going to be easy. Challenging a government corporation rarely is. But MAGNZ remains committed to pushing for a fairer, more transparent ACC levy system for motorcyclists.
The road continues — and we are still on it.
