 Domain name dispute resolution: ICANN and Nominet - UK Commercial Arbitration Law Developments (Legal500.com)
In contrast, the Nominet UK dispute resolution process (for '.uk' domains, such as '.co.uk') does not appear to be enjoying the same level of patronage.
However, the deficiencies in the Nominet UK procedures, and the apparent disinterest of Nominet in providing an speedy and cost-effective means of resolving domain name disputes, may also explain the lack of enthusiasm for the Nominet procedure.
Nominet policy may be laudable, the ICANN URDP is the more commercially realistic and preferable approach to the resolution of domain name disputes.
