auDA, the administrator and industry self-regulatory policy body for Australia's .au domain space is considering changes to the organisation through a review of its current policies.
The organisation has announced it is holding a series of public forums around Australia in February to share some of the proposed changes to the .au space and to get public input into how it should work.
In auDA says the .au namespace is a critical piece of Australia’s digital infrastructure and the way it’s managed impacts the economy.
“It’s not just part of the websites and email addresses we use, it affects crucial services ranging from medical devices to the apps on your phone.

auDA’s Policy Review Panel needs to hear from you to ensure that the .au namespace continues to benefit the entire Australian community,” the organisation says.
The public forums are open to everybody, but registration – via the links below - is required:
