8. Second opinion requests 

When one single end site requires multiple /48s for 2 years 
requirement LIRs must follow Second opinion request process prior 
to the assignment.

 8.1 Documentation required
 In addition to the designated request form, LIRs are requested to
 provide RIRs/NIRs with the detailed network information as below;

  8.1.1 Sub-Allocations
   RIRs/NIRs do not require a Second Opinion Request for 
   sub-allocations to downstream ISPs. (Please see [9. 
   Subsequent allocations].) Nevertheless when LIRs are unsure how 
   much address space to sub-allocate, LIRs are recommended to ask 
   RIRs/NIRs for advice.

  8.1.2 Assignments
   LIRs must justify why multiple /48s are needed per single end site
   by the following documentation but not limited to these.

   - Network diagram
   - Addressing/subnetting plan
   - Network equipment information
