Yes. It is smaller than the southern polar ozone hole. There is a hole that forms in the ozone layer above the pole that is experiencing winter. The Southern pole get more hydrogen nucleii form the solar wind than the northern pole does, due to Earth's current magnetic field arrangement. This is why the southern polar hole is larger than the northern polar hole.

Where is current hole in ozone layer?
Over the Southern and Northern poles.
Why do you think an ozone hole in the Northern Stratosphere is more dangerous than one located above Antarctica?
Ozone hole over Northern Stratosphere is dangerous. It is because it is present over human race.
Is the hole in the ozone layer getting larger?
yesbut in some parts theres no hole but the ozone is too thickThe ozone hole this (2009) winter/spring (south pole) was a little smaller than the record size. Whether Man had any part in that "improvement" through his efforts remains to be seen. Note that the ozone hole is an annual repeating phenomenon at each pole, and the southern ozone hole is naturally larger than the northern ozone hole.
Why is the ozone layer and ozone hole specifically important to Australia?
No real reason, actually. Russia and Canada both have documented issues with the widening northern polar hole, just as Australia does.
If there were not a hole in the Ozone could the Northern Lights exist as they do?
The Northern Lights are not affected by the ozone layer. Auroras are caused by charged solar particles colliding with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen in the ionosphere.
What is the name of the hole in the ozone?
