  • review the policy framework underlying the allocation and use of domain names in the .au domain space*; and
  • provide recommendations to the auDA board about what changes (if any) should be made to the policy framework.

* The following 2LDs are excluded from the Terms of Reference: csiro.au, edu.au, gov.au and the community geographic 2LDs (act.au, nsw.au, nt.au, sa.au, tas.au, vic.au, wa.au).
