We discuss first a method of measuring τ polarisation at the ILC using the 1--prong hadronic decays of the τ. We then show in this contribution how a study of the τ~ sector and particularly use of decay τ polarisation can offer a very good handle for distinguishing between mSUGRA and a SUSY-GUT scenario, both of which can give rise to appropriate Dark Matter.
