According to auDA the domain was being used for a business pupose and the details are yet to be corrected.  Of course there is no publication of the fact that a complaint was filed or the outcome of the investigation and no monitoring of the required update.

Details, details....but important details.  Under auda policy the registrant must be registered at law to be eligible and once a defect is notified it must be corrected within a period of time.  The time has expired and nothing has changed.

Question must be asked are auDA investigations being properly funded.  Elspeth has advised that she was dealing with about 300 emails in 1 day.

You must be aware that the tax office recently published a survey on the accuracy of .au registrant information and rated it as being extremely poor.  

Now in this situation auda can not point the finger at a registrar.  It is the registrar for some reason.
