+1 Dave’s comments.

I support 2016-9. It should hopefully strengthen the accuracy of the whois data.

See; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporation#History <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporation#History>  Further, in most cases the agencies of a state are not independent but sub-parts of the whole. Therefore, moving resources between agencies should more properly be considered a reorganization of a single entity, in most situations, and not a transfer between separate entities.  Also, I'd expect ARIN would provide some level of deference to sovereign government entities like states, especially in an interagency type situation.

So, I could imagine ARIN asking a state (or agency) to provide evidence (such as a quote of applicable statute) of who has authority over the agencies and/or resources in question.  I expect this would be especially be true, if resources were being transferred out of a State's control.
