The application was processed by New Zealand's domain name Registry, Domainz, in line with its published policies. Mr O'Brien said Domainz was established solely to manage the domain name space and Registry, which includes all .nz domain name registrations. Our published terms of service make it clear that we do not get involved in issues of name entitlement. That is a matter for the parties to resolve. It was the responsibility of the applicant to ensure they did not infringe the rights of others through their choice of name.
