The sales body representing Australia’s online media owners has created a regulatory affairs committee.
The announcement:
24 September 2012: IAB Australia today announced that it has established a Regulatory Affairs Council chaired by the newly appointed Director of Regulatory Affairs, Samantha Yorke. The Council brings together the regulatory representatives from key member organisations to develop and advocate policy positions on a range of key areas including privacy, data, and advertiser, platform and intermediary liability issues. Participation in the Council is by invitation.
The Regulatory Affairs Council is the fifth IAB Council and will join IAB Australia’s Mobile Advertising Council launched in 2011 and the Measurement Council; Standards and Guidelines Council; and Research Council, all of which were launched in early 2009.
