So - let us get back to some very ancient history http://www.ripe.net/ripe/wg/ncc-services/r59-minutes.html
Uwe stated that there should be a check that organisations requesting resources actually exist before assigning to them.
Nick Hilliard (INEX) pointed out that this check is already done by the RIPE NCC. However, there is little the RIPE NCC can do if documents are fake. The RIPE NCC is not the routing police.
Is there anything being done to remedy this? [Yes, there is a process now to deregister LIRs for fraud. Is there fraud investigation built into the new LIR setup and netblock allocation through LIRs process? And some amount of auditability of existing LIRs?

Let us just say "on several LIRs".

Huh?
So there's too many of us? What on earth is that meant to mean? Is that an aspersion on LIRs or on RIPE or on both?
