Do not allow additional LIR accounts for a member.
I would concur.
One legal entity, one LIR. This should be easy for RIPE to implement, given that they require evidence of company registration or equivalent when establishing an LIR.
+1
(ignoring the fact that opening a new legal entity is quite easy in most parts of the RIPE region)
You really have two approaches to get someone to do something you want: Incentive or disincentive. Perhaps there should be incentives to return unused space. Perhaps there should be higher fees (disincentive) for secondary and further LIRs, although this would be hard to police I think. But this seems fair, really it is in all interests for RIR to be run efficiently, creating more LIRs is just administrative burden although there may be edge cases that require it. Fine if so, but make it so that there is an additional cost for that unnecessary burden and discourage abuse of resources.
