eight-week discussion period. At the end of that period, if consensus
appears to have been achieved, the Chair of the Policy SIG will
ask the Executive Council to endorse the proposal for implementation.

Proposal details
____________________

This proposal removes the minimum assignment size of /48 for an end
site, allowing the unit of assignment to be the LIR’s decision. If only
one subnet is anticipated for an end site, the minimum assignment size
is proposed to be /64. To cater for the differing assignment sizes
allowed under this proposal, it is further proposed that APNIC measure
utilisation of IPv6 address space in terms of the bits to the left of
the /56 boundary.
