gov.uk domains for other public sector bodies
The public sector covers a vast range of organisations and some specific ones are listed on the home page. In addition to that list are some further types of organisation which may be eligible for a .gov.uk domain and are encouraged to apply for one.
Fire services
Any of the fire services throughout the UK may apply to register a .gov.uk domain. This will give the general public in particular more confidence in dealing with this emergency service than an open domain would do.
Joint authorities and joint committees
Joint authorities and joint committees are also eligible and are encouraged to use a .gov.uk domain for additional security particularly for internal communications.
Partnership bodies
Partnership bodies may elect to use a .gov.uk domain subject to approval.
Restricted access
The .gov.uk domain space is quite rightly more strictly controlled than other second-level domains such as .co.uk which are wide open for public registration and so you will need to ensure that you fulfil the relevant requirements. Openstrike can help you navigate through this process and can provide you with secure domain management and associated services providing peace of mind throughout.What to do next
There are three possible scenarios depending upon which type of domain(s) you currently use. Please follow the appropriate links here for further information.
