This is great!  A bit dated but still very useful.  I'd been on the
understanding that reverse look-ups in Oz were not permitted.

I believe the reason it is illegal in Australia was that Desktop 
Marketing Systems Pty Ltd was ruled to have broken copyright on the 
Telstra phone directory:

Interestingly Telstra used to offer such a service itself:

 listings as well (ie if someone different was listed against the number last
 year).
