European Eunion is in the process of harmonization of the laws. All ccTLD registries withing European Union must comply with national law, and transposed EU directives. Important is making consumers aware of their rights, and giving them easy access to exercise their rights. The bulk access to the whois databases is not allowed in Europe.
