Dear National Disability Insurance Agency,

I refer to an article published in the Courier Mail, Adelaide Advertiser, Daily Telegraph and other newspapers on 30 November 2025 by Julie Cross, entitled '‘They didn’t speak to me’: This NDIS stuff-up nearly cost me my life'.

The article states: "A spokeswoman for the agency said it does not use algorithms in developing or approving plans"

I request copies of all correspondence in relation to this article, between the NDIA and the journalist (or between the NDIA and the media company for whom the journalist works), including copies of any request for information made by the journalist/media company to the NDIA for this news article, and all information supplied by the NDIA to the journalist/media company.

Yours faithfully,
David Wright
