France and Mali both objected to all four applications; France claims that the demands for legitimacy with regards to health services around the world prevents .health from being an easily deployable TLD, and that all applicants need greater security measures, they further note that: " We also refer to the requests from the World Health Organization NGOs, and others, who wrote to ICANN and the GAC to delay the attribution of the string to allow for consultation with the global health community on operating the TLD in the Public Interest."<ref>[https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/22938690/Health-FR-6394.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1353451859000 Health FR, GACweb.ICANN.org]</ref> Mali makes similar claims, and Cameroon also submitted an Early Warning to [[Afilias]] .health application, copying the French warning verbatim.<ref>[https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/22938690/Health-CM-1-3442.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1353378092000 Health CM, GACWeb.ICANN.org]</ref>

[[Donuts]] replied to France´s warning to .health, and its similar objections for [[.architect]], [[.sarl]], and [[.vin]], with an impassioned defense of the validity of open registration for New gTLDs.It notes that restricting registration unfairly assumes malfeasance on the part of the registrant, that no such restrictions exist for related domains in any exisiting gTLDs or ccTLDs, and that verification and restriction would inevitably raise the price of registration significantly. They go on to quote the GAC's own advice with regards to its contract with [[.xxx]] registry provider, [[ICM Registry]], which notes that at that time the GAC was against any monitoring of TLD content given that it seems to overstep ICANN's technical mandate.<ref>[http://donuts.co/news/files/donuts_reply_to_france_ARCHITECT_HEALTH_HOTEL_SARL_VIN.pdf Donuts reply to France, donuts.co]Published February 5 2013, Retrieved 8 Feb 2013</ref>
