I know the minister said she would take on notice questions relating to Mr Rory White. I advise the minister that Mr Rory White has been known to the NDIS since 2016. He has an acquired brain injury. He has been advised by the NDIS that, because he did not expend all of his funds for the previous year, he was deemed to have improved in his functional capacity. He has been advised by the NDIS that his electronic documents have been lost, and, as of last month, the NDIS planner was insisting that Mr White has cerebral palsy, not an acquired brain injury. Could the minister advise or take on notice how many LAC planners Rory White has had in the past 12 months?
