However, Sec. Strickling also notes [[NTIA]]'s concerns over the limited progress over [[Trademark Clearinghouse]] and the [[Uniformed Rapid Suspension]] (URS) policy. Larry Strickling noted that ICANN has issued an update on the clearinghouse and a request for information searching for a URS services provider.
