McKinsey
Dear National Disability Insurance Agency,
would like to request a copy of all reports / documents delivered by consulting firm McKinsey & Company to the NDIA in the last 3 financial years. McKinsey have delivered significant work for the Agency in 2017-18 at very high cost so it is in the public interest to know how this was spent.
Given the recent, significant public interest in McKinsey due to their controversial activities in anti democratic or corrupt governments such as South Africa, Saudi Arabia and Malaysia (1MDB), I request that the FOIA request fees be waived.
Yours faithfully,
Andy Johnson
