Policy Proposal Name: Sunset Clause for Liberalized Transfer Policy

Proposal Originator: Owen DeLong

Proposal Version: 1.0

Date: 4 June 2009

Proposal type: delete

Policy term: permanent

Policy statement:

Section 8.3, "Transfers to Specified Recipients", of the NRPM is
deleted upon the effective date of this policy.

Rationale:

When the community reached consensus in   support of 2008-6, it
contained a sunset clause.   In the process of developing 2009-1,
the sunset clause was removed. The effect of this policy proposal is
to restore the sunset clause while adopting a more rational date at
which to sunset the policy.

Timetable for implementation:

31 December, 2013
or
3 years after IANA issues the last /8s to the RIRs,
whichever is later.
