<div> May I ask a question about the above point? If ARIN assigns address space </div>
<div> in this region to end-users, and an end-user comes to ARIN and requests a /30 </div>
<div> of IPv4 space (based on their actual need), on what basis does ARIN have to </div>
<div> deny the end-user request if we have the space available and they have a </div>
<div> bona fide need?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> Is it valid to deny the request because we have community developed and Board</div>
<div> adopted policy that requires sufficient need to warrant a /24 assignment due to a</div>
<div> minimum block size in the policy?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks!</div>
