  •       On Thursday 13 January, the French National Assembly adopted on first reading a bill to define the new legal framework for extensions corresponding to the national territory. On 6 October 2010, the Constitutional Council declared section L. 45 of the Post and Electronic Communications Code unconstitutional and set a deadline of 1 July 2011 for the legislature to provide a new legal framework for Top Level Domains corresponding to the national territory.


          The text adopted on 13 January takes into account the main points raised by the Constitutional Council and explicitly refers to the constitutional rights involved in the Freedom of Communication and Freedom of Trade.


          The new law also reinforces key principles for the players in the domain name market such as the first come, first served rule, or the accountability of applicants for domain names in relation to the rights of third parties.


          The draft will soon be handed over to the Senate, where it should pass during the coming weeks.
