The application, which was submitted as a generic English word, was issued a [[GAC]] Early Warning from the Japanese government; the warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the [[ICANN Board]] that a given TLD application should be denied. The Japanese [[GAC]] representative notes that there are two cities named "Date" in Japan, "one in Fukushima Prefecture and one in Hokkaido, Japan", and thus the application represents a Geographic TLD that did not receive the requisite government support.<ref>[https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/22938690/Date-JP-30301.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1353382355000 Date JP, GACweb.ICANN.org] Retrieved 24 November 2012</ref>
