Thanks for the posting m4c, but I am not sure this clears things up.
The reasons that companies own domain names and not an individual of the company are many
- company believes there is an asset value in the domain name
- they own the brand name
- they don't want an individual to move to competitor holding the domain name
- legal responsibility
So it strikes me as a little puzzling that Nominet's first letter to an ex- director of a company, which no longer exists, contains

DoubleTap said earlier that Nominet don't consider the domain name to be an asset which is completely wrong, re poker.org $1 million pretty good money for a non-asset! It is not Nominet's remit to consider whether a domain name has an asset value, this is the responsibility of the insolvency practitioner.
My point in starting this thread that if a company is dissolved it no longer exists so nobody can re-register the domain name as there own. As a consequence of this the domain should then be left to drop.
