Dear Sergey, Please allow me to explain why the change in Section 1.2.2.g was described as bringing alignment with the wording used in the RIPE NCC Standard Service Agreement. Article 9.4 of the RIPE NCC Standard Service Agreement (SSA) states the following: "The RIPE NCC shall be entitled to terminate the RIPE NCC Standard Service Agreement with immediate effect in accordance with the procedure set forth in the RIPE NCC document 'Closure of LIR and Deregistration of Internet Number Resources' ... h. if the Member provides the RIPE NCC with falsified or misleading data or provides the RIPE NCC repeatedly with incorrect data" According to this article, it is not a requirement that provision of falsified or misleading data by a member has to occur in a repeated manner for the RIPE NCC to be entitled to terminate their SSA. Also, it is one of the member's contractual responsibilities to provide the RIPE NCC with complete, up-to-date and accurate information that is necessary for the provision of the RIPE NCC services (Article 6.2). When applying the RIPE NCC procedures and before deciding to terminate a member's SSA in accordance with Article 9, the RIPE NCC makes sure that all conditions are met and there is enough evidence to support making this decision.

Dear Maria,
Thank you for the announcement.
I'm moving the discussion to members-discuss.
Other amendments were carried out to align the wording of specific sections with the wording used in the rest of the document, the RIPE NCC Standard Service Agreement (Sections A.1.2.2.g and B.1.d), and other RIPE NCC procedural documents (Section A.1.1). Similarly, changes were made to reflect changes in the RIPE Database (both operational and structural) and in RIPE Policy requirements (Sections A.1.2.1.1.c and B.1.c). I would not call this 'wording changes':
$ diff ripe697 ripe716 7c7 < The Member repeatedly provides falsified data or information, or purposefully and/or repeatedly provides incorrect data or information (for example, falsified registration documents or IDs, incorrect/inaccurate contact details, etc.). ---
The Member provides falsified or misleading data or information (for example, falsified registration documents or IDs), or repeatedly provides incorrect data or information (for example, incorrect/inaccurate contact details). 11c11 < The Member submits repeatedly fraudulent requests for Internet number resources (for example, providing incorrect purpose/need or falsified information about the network, etc.).
The Member submits fraudulent requests for Internet number resources (for example, providing incorrect purpose/need or falsified information about the network, etc.). So the word 'repeatedly' disappear and in case of _any_ only document mistake, deliberately or not made by the member, the RIPE NCC can call this 'misleading data' or 'fraudulent request' and terminate the membership?
Thank you.

Dear Colleagues,
The RIPE NCC Procedural document 'Closure of Members, Deregistration of Internet Resources and Legacy Resources' has recently been reviewed and updated. The following is an overview of the amendments made.
Section A.1.1 was amended to include situations where both the Member and the RIPE NCC agree to terminate the SSA before the usual three month period has passed. Other changes were made to avoid duplication of information.
Section B.2 was updated to specify certain conditions under which a three month timeframe for deregistration of either Member or End User resources would be unreasonable.
The wording in Section B.2.1 was amended to clarify that during the deregistration process the Member is not allowed to make new announcements using the resources to be deregistered, and that the RIPE NCC will update the maintainer on all the Member's resource objects - not just on the inetnum object.
Section B.2.2 was amended to bring about alignment of the procedures for the deregistration of End User and Member resources and to clarify that if an End User does not have a sponsoring LIR when the deregistration procedure is initiated, they must first establish a contractual relationship with one before they can object to that procedure.
Other amendments were carried out to align the wording of specific sections with the wording used in the rest of the document, the RIPE NCC Standard Service Agreement (Sections A.1.2.2.g and B.1.d), and other RIPE NCC procedural documents (Section A.1.1). Similarly, changes were made to reflect changes in the RIPE Database (both operational and structural) and in RIPE Policy requirements (Sections A.1.2.1.1.c and B.1.c).
