- Identify issues that require changes to policy or legislation and make recommendations as required, to proactively address risks and reduce the risk of liability and claims arising from registry operations.
- Provide legal and regulatory perspectives on strategy, development, process and policy aspects of ISC registry related projects, initiatives and business opportunities.
