Lets say the LIR is saying: network xy was assigned to customer yz and the customers sayd the purpose was "routing equipment". And now the NCC realizes that there is lots of spam and other abuse coming out of these assignments.
I don't speak for the NCC but IIRC the NCC checks that *a* technical need for the assignment still exist, *not* that it is the same topology as 10 years ago when the block was first assigned. In real network operations, the network does not stay the same forever, what was assigned to a router 3 years ago may be assigned to a mail server or a DSL line today.
What happens: has the LIR to cancel the contract with its customer ?
If there still is a need for the assignemnt, nothing happens. If not, the assignment must be returned to the LIR. The NCC has no authority over who a LIR does business with. rgds, Sascha Luck
