I note that the minister said she believes not. I would appreciate it if we could get some clarity and if she could take on notice to confirm that. I want to speak to the case of Rory White, a 23-year-old man with an acquired brain injury from New South Wales. In May this year the NDIS re-evaluated Rory's functional capacity and deemed it improved, based on the fact that he did not use all of his allocated funds. That was the advice given to Rory's mother. Is the minister aware of the case of Rory White?
