Hi,

The justification for the needs was/is great to have in place to protect a
free pool of scarce resources.

Maintaining a correct registry, with the proper information is one of the
core responsibilities of the RIRs, and as a community we must develop
policies that allows the RIR to do that job in the most easy and convenient
manner, no need would enable that for APNIIC, their time can then be spent
on other things.

Unused resources, ideally should be returned to the free pool, but that
almost never happen voluntarily, they will instead be transferred, or even
simply assigned or sub-allocated, no real big difference here, just
different values in the Database and different real world contracts, some
Database editing you can do yourself, others you need to ask your RIR for
assistance.

Resources that get transferred are not issued by the RIR from their free
pool, they are already out there, I do not see any positive impact if APNIC
rejects a transfer because the recipient cannot justify the whole prefix to
be transferred.

It will not increase the free pool available at APNIC.
It may as well cancel the whole transfer.
If initially rejected and further information is needed, it delays what is
a very sensitive process, where both the offering and receiving party wants
the whole process rounded up as fast as possible.

RIPE region has had the "no need policy" in place for years, I don't
believe any sign of massive hoarding for speculative purpose is visible
over there (Multiple membership process gets abused, but that is another
issue altogether).
Large transfers were made, and you do not need to have access to any stats
to know those organisations needed that space, justifying large allocations
can be extremely time consuming and ultimately detrimental to the overall
LIR's business.
