In the matter of Deduction from Wages and the 'Wages Protection Act 1983'

TO ALL AND SINGULAR; After reading the relevant legislation (detailed below) it is my understanding and is it not true that no employer may take any deductions from my wages without my written consent? Please be aware that ANY deductions from my wages require my written agreement, and you have no authority from me to make any such deductions. Please cease and desist with any and all further deductions.

This means that not any state, group or person can insist that an employer makes any deduction from an employee's wages on behalf of them, as this would be criminal behaviour, namely theft. For any state, group or person to use threats, intimidation or coercion to try to enforce deductions upon an employer is criminal behaviour and would make the instigator and the perpetrator liable for criminal charges.

3 Act to bind the Crown

• • This Act shall bind the Crown.

[All Crown entities, WINZ, IRD etc. are bound by this Act. Not to do so is illegal and any threats etc. is criminal behaviour.]

4 No deductions from wages except in accordance with Act

• • Subject to sections 5(1) and 6(2), an employer shall, when any wages become payable to a worker, pay the entire amount of those wages to that worker without deduction.

[It is illegal for any agents or principles of any Crown entity, including WINZ and the IRD to insist upon and enforce any deductions from an employee's wages without the employee's WRTTEN agreement].

5 Deductions with worker's consent

• • (1) An employer may, for any lawful purpose,—

    • • (a) with the written consent of a worker; or

      • (b) on the written request of a worker—

make deductions from wages payable to that worker.

[This is the only legal avenue for deductions to be made from wages.]

If you believe my understanding to be incorrect then please supply all relevant lawful documentation to substantiate your claim. If such substantiation is not received at the above address for service in the time frame of seven (7) working days then it will be taken as given that my understanding is correct and prevails in truth and law. Any unlawful deductions will be subject to lawful process which may entail a commercial lien.

In Honour
