Hi Nick, All,

I understand you are talking about 
https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-001

The word "enforcement" is not part of ripe-001.

So, it's not explicitely written as something which is completely out of 
scope. The RIPE NCC (as a supporting organization) is already "enforcing" 
that people abide by rules (i.e. it's against the rules to provide 
falsified information, and even unresponsiveness may lead to a LIR closure 
-- that's what i read from RIPE-716, just to name a few).


Best Regards,
Carlos
