       Dear PDWG<br>
      <p>During the Policy discussions in the AFRINIC-32 PPM  on 17 Sep
        2020, there was a debate regarding the reciprocity of one
        inter-RIR transfer policy proposal with ARIN. The Policy Liaison
        had responded that since there are 3 policy proposals under
        discussion and that two of them had undergone revision in 2020 ,
        AFRINIC shall contact ARIN to get their authoritative response
        in regard to the reciprocity of all the <b>3 proposals</b>.</p>
      <p>Since the  LACNIC, RIPE and APNIC RIRs all have inter-RIR
        transfer policies, and we, AFRINIC do not have their assessment
        of the reciprocity of the 3 policy proposals under discussion on
        record,  AFRINIC has therefore reached out to all  4 RIRs to 
        get their inputs regarding the reciprocity of the<b> three </b>policy
        proposals that were discussed in the AFRINIC PPM last week.</p>
      <p>We shall update you once we have received the updates from the 
        4 RIRs. "<br>
