Dutch Ministry Wants Guarantees from .NL Domain Registry SIDN
The Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs wants guarantees that the .nl domain will remain sovereign and accessible under all circumstances. State Secretary, Frank Heemskerk, believes that since the .nl domain has such large public interest, the security and sovereignty for the Netherlands must be guaranteed by domain registry SIDN.
To that end, the Ministry wants to sign an agreement with Dutch Domain Registry SIDN in mid-June, which will help secure those concerns. This move is reflected in a written reply by the State Secretary that was also addressing concerns about the collapsed landrush of numeric domains, which we reported on earlier.
