The external Policy Advisory Panel appointed to undertake a review of the .au Domain Administration Rules: Licensing (.au Licensing Rules) is seeking community input to ensure the rules remain relevant and effective and the .au domain is administered for the benefit of all Australians.

The Panel has published a Review Consultation Paper which explains some of the key issues identified from the public consultation process that took place when developing the Terms of Reference for the Review. The Panel is seeking feedback on these issues and any other matters relating to the .au Licensing Rules that you wish to raise.

The information you provide will be considered by the Panel when it develops its draft report on the review. The community will have an opportunity to provide feedback on the draft report when it is published in early 2026, via another round of public consultation.
