| Summary:
Presently the allocation period for all allocations and transfers from within the RIPE NCC service region is 3 month. While this makes sense for new RIPE allocations, where there is a shortage of supply, in the case of transfers often the source is from a larger dormant block held by an LIR. It makes sense to increase the period of use for transfers to better match the quantity that is available and needed from this larger supply pool. |

| Summary: The final /8 of address space to be administered by the RIPE NCC is subject to a restrictive delegation policy. In its current form, it can only be used to provide allocations of IPv4 address space to LIRs. This is inherently biased against the large number of organisations which require Provider Independent (PI) assignments of IPv4 address space. This policy seeks to redress this bias by allowing End Users to receive PI assignments from the last /8. |
