Here is the policy text being proposed in RIPE for Inter-RIR Transfers - 2014-05

https://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2014-05

From the proposed policy text (with labels added for reference) -

(a) When Internet number resources are transferred to another RIR, the RIPE NCC will work with the destination RIR to allow the transfer to the receiving LIR.

(b) When Internet number resources are transferred from another RIR, the RIPE NCC will work with its member LIR to fulfil any requirements of the sending RIR.

(c) If resources are transferred as legacy resources, the RIPE NCC will apply the legacy policy when accepting these resources.

The intent of the above text may not be clear with respect to resources coming from 
another region (b) which are presently "legacy" resources in that region,  i.e. it might
be possible to reasonable argue that the policy intent is (b) or (c) for that case.

(Not a comment in favor or opposition to the proposed policy; just seeking clarity so 
 that implementation, if it were adopted, has solid alignment with the policy intent.)

Thanks!
