If the customer just moves the same amount of stuff from A to B without anything changing hands or a reduction in the number of machines/services, *need* will still be satisfied. But Andrea has raised a significant point here: if *documentation* is not updated, the assignment is no longer valid, as that is a strict requirement (both for direct PI assignments and for PA-through-LIR assignments, it was not clear from your e-mail which sort you are referring to). Assuming PI, and assuming you are talking about the RIPE NCC making assignments ("Ripe" can not make assignments, as that's the policy-making community, read: all of us), I'm fairly sure the e-mail that contains the actual network that has been assigned clearly contains that requirement, to always keep the documentation up to date. Now, answerung to your second example: if you documented need for 3 locations, and part of that documentation contained something like "we need to upgrade the assignment size to a /24 to handle routing requirements, but we really only have 3 hosts on each site" - and then you move everything to one location, the original criteria would *not* apply any longer, as a single /24 would perfectly well serve to number these combined 9 hosts plus the routing requirements. So, individual cases are different (and I fully trust the NCC to understand the fine nuances, and to apply pain where necessary).
