there are two issues here: the immediate one relates to removal of these 
particular objects, but there's a longer term issue of whether the NCC 
needs to be asked by the community to delete all objects which are 
deregistered from the other LIRs on an ongoing basis.  Honestly I would 
have thought probably not because this sounds like the sort of thing 
that falls into general garbage cleanup, i.e. normal stewardship of 
resources.

Could someone from the NCC clarify what the current situation with this 
is?  Is this something which is currently dealt with, and if not, could 
it be?

The reverse is also relevant. I.e. the RIPE NCC probably needs to 
publish lists of resources which have been deregistered so that other 
RIRs / IRRDBs can delete objects which refer to those resources which 
date from before the date of deregistration.
