This proposal suggests deleting the LIR Second Opinion Request (SOR) process from the policy, which is rarely used, and is no longer required with the exhaustion of IPv4, and not required with IPv6. |

| Status at other RIRs | Other RIRs don’t have this process or it is optional/not used. |
| Secretariat impact assessment | prop-139-v001: This proposal appears to be straightforward. APNIC notes the deletion of LIR “Assignment Window (AW) and Second Opinion Request (SOR)” from the policy manual, and it is unlikely to change current practices for evaluating requests. This proposal would require changes to the website content and procedure documents, but not require any changes to the systems. If this proposal reaches consensus, implementation can be completed within 3 months. |
