Woops - I cut too much, this was meant to be in reply to Sabrina's "Yes, it
is".
When 80% is currently *allocated* out of the RIPE NCC address blocks, we request additional addresses from IANA.
It is unclear about what you mean with "declared used" , however, we do not wait until all LIRs have *assigned* all addresses from their allocations before we request additional address space.
In other words, when we have less than 20% free address space to allocate from, a request is sent to IANA.

Hope this answered your question.
Kind regards,

Nurani Nimpuno
