===GAC Warning===
 +
The application was subject to a [[GAC]] Early Warning from the representative of Australia and GAC Chair, [[Heather Dryden]]. The warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the [[ICANN Board]] that a given TLD application should be denied. The warning notes that the string is linked to a regulated market and that the applicant has not put proposed sufficient mechanisms to mitigate potential harm.<ref>[https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/22938690/Accountant-AU-93305.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1353384996000 Accountant AU, GACweb.ICANN.org]</ref>
