I cannot understand all this "cheaper domains"
business. Currently anyone can register a .com.au for
as little as $50 /2 years - $25 per year. If you have
a legitimate use for it, after all .com.au are
supposed to be for commercial use, then what is the
problem. Having lower prices only encourages bulk
buying which will lead to more disputes.

How about that if a registrar if found to have
registered a domain without following policy then they
pay the auDRP fee which the complainant has had to
fork out.
