In any members association, the association is legitimated to act against members that don’t follow the rules.
It is not a matter of “police”, nobody is asking the RIR to be the Internet police as some folks stated in this discussion (here or in other lists). Saying that is basically diverting the discussion to a different place: We can’t do anything, so we ask the governments to legislate over Internet because we aren’t capable of self-regulate. It is a matter of 1) the rights of members and 2) the obligations of the association with the members. Even if you don’t have 2) above, members can scale it to LEA/courts. However, not having those rights explicitly worded out, may preclude LEA, courts, etc., to take actions. Having specific wording will *immediately* allow courts and judicial experts, to confirm that it was against the rules of the association. Done. Again, it may differ a bit in the laws from country to country (I doubt it will be too much anyway). I’m speaking from what I know, not being a lawyer, but with some experience in dealing with courts and cases.

Otherwise the bad actors will simply choose to hijack numbers in a different region to avoid the policy. And that's probably a good thing. If one region doesn't adopt this policy, versus others adopting it, then hijackers will try to operate under that region, and I guess that means the "quality" of service of the regions that don't adopt it decreases, and that may turn the community into a different view of it. Also, I assume we are mostly discussing hijacking of IPv4 resources, much of which are clearly related to their short supply. I am unaware of any real effort currently being made to hijack IPv6 resources. The proposal covers "any" resource hijacking (IPv4, IPv6 and ASN). The fact that IPv6 is not being hijacked know, doesn't means that we can't prevent it to be covered by a policy proposal.
