<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">auDA is currently reviewing the WHOIS Policy (2010-06) and has released an Issues Paper for public comment.
<br>
<br>
</span></p>
<p class="Default">WHOIS is the service that allows people to look up certain details in relation to a registered domain name. The WHOIS service discloses only a subset of the data held in the registry database. auDA does not currently provide access to other
types of registry data, other than to law enforcement bodies.</p>
<p class="Default"> </p>
<p class="Default">This review covers the following separate but related questions:<br>
</p>
<p class="Default">1. Should there be any changes to auDA’s WHOIS Policy covering the collection, disclosure and use of WHOIS data for .au domain names?
</p>
<p class="Default"> </p>
<p class="Default">2. Should access to .au domain name data (other than via WHOIS) be opened up?
</p>
<p class="Default"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">The closing date for submissions is
<b>Friday 31 January 2014</b>.<br>
