Expenses
The expenses per activity show an increase for Membership Services as
a result of the continued development of the RIPE NCC Member Service Desk
and data accuracy activities. In addition, the expenses for Membership
Services show an increase due to the new activity to support routing security.
The expenses for Co-ordination Activities are substantially lower as
most K-root global nodes have been deployed. For 2006, only one additional
K-root global node is budgeted. The RIPE Meeting expenses show an increase
due to an estimate increase in attendee numbers.
The overall expenditure for Information Services remains in line with
the 2005 budget.
