Originally, domain requests were emailed, manually screened by and then forwarded to the <a href="/w/index.php?title=UK_Naming_Committee&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="UK Naming Committee (page does not exist)">UK Naming Committee</a> before being processed by UKERNA. Membership of this committee was restricted to a group of high-end <a href="/wiki/Internet_service_provider" title="Internet service provider">ISPs</a> who were part of a formal <a href="/wiki/Peering" title="Peering">peering</a> arrangement. </p><p>The Naming Committee was organised as a mailing list to which all proposed names were circulated. The members would consider the proposals under a ruleset that insisted that all domain names should be very close if not identical to a registered business name of the registrant. Members of the Naming Committee could object to any name, and if at least a small number of objections were received, the name was refused. </p><p>By the mid-1990s the growth of the Internet, and particularly the advent of the <a href="/wiki/World_Wide_Web" title="World Wide Web">World Wide Web</a> was pushing requests for <a href="/wiki/Domain_name" title="Domain name">domain name</a> registrations up to levels that were not manageable by a group of part-time volunteers. Oliver Smith of <a href="/wiki/Demon_Internet" title="Demon Internet">Demon Internet</a> forced the issue by providing the committee with a series of automated tools, called the "automaton", which formalised and automated the naming process end to end.

In response to this Black, as the .uk Name, stepped up with a bold proposal for a not-for-profit commercial entity to deal with the .uk domain properly. Commercial interests initially balked at this, but with widespread support <a href="/wiki/Nominet_UK" title="Nominet UK">Nominet UK</a> was formed in 1996 to be the .uk Network Information Centre, a role which it continues to this day. </p><p>The general form of the rules (i.e. which domains can be registered and whether to allow second level domains) was set by the Naming Committee.
