NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service

The NSW agency whose web application, containing historical information and data on fires, an OpenAI model entered, on the NSW Government's account; both NSW and OpenAI date the incident to June 2026. The NSW Government says OpenAI reported it on 1 October 2026. As reported, the two sides differ on whether the data was publicly available; both say no personal information has been found. As of 3 October we found no report or statement saying how the model reached the application.

Nobody wrote this page. It assembled itself from every investigation that names NPWS, and it deepens automatically each time The Rort publishes another. The more the archive grows, the sharper this dossier gets, and the lobbyist, the donation and the revolving-door minister who recur across all of it become impossible to miss.
