Sender: xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx
Subject: [.au Support - Case #01239018] The �master list� of gov.au public domain names.
Hi Chris,
Since you need report on gov.au domains you need to contact the registrar Department of Finance-.au. You can
either get this report for them or if they request us to send it, we are happy to send the report to the registrar.
But, it should be requested by the registrar's authorised contact.
Should you require further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us and include the string:
ref:_00DD0CWb4._5004G2Ri8xw:ref in the body of all future correspondence with regards to this ticket. To do
so, you may simply reply to this message.
Sincerely,
Abhinav Vatsavaya

8. The complete document and/or transcript chain, and all specified "objections" mentioned in your statement
"In considering whether or not the Master List should be released to you, Finance consulted with both auDA
and Identity Digital who jointly objected to the disclosure of the Master List.". I want to know what you said to
them, which made them (according to you) change their minds (see their letter to me above) - so be sure that
what you did say to them is included in your response.
9. The complete and current list of public-facing government .au domain names (no other information, just the
domain names). Note that this used to be publicly available on assorted government web sites, but those URLs
(e.g. https://data.gov.au/dataset/a-z-list-of-government-sites ) are now returning 404-not-found errors. Previous
FoI requests to this information have been granted (e.g.
https://www.righttoknow.org.au/request/list_of_government_govau_domains )
Yours faithfully,
C Drake
