'''[[Nominet]]''', the registry for the [[.uk]] [[ccTLD]] is in the news for its proposal to open up registrations for the English [[ccTLD]] at the [[Second Level Domain|second level]]; only third level registration is currently available. The proposed change would allow ''domain.uk'' to be registered rather than ''domain.co.uk'' or ''domain.org.uk''. The proposed registration policy changes have already been responded to by [[Michele Neylon]], of Irish [[registrar]] [[Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd]], as seeming to be "heavily influenced" by suggestions from law enforcement within the context of ongoing discussions in [[ICANN]] over the [[Registrar Accreditation Agreement]].

Nonetheless, the company has previously promised to eventually expand beyond its English-centric operations to include an office in Wales with Welsh speaking staff.
