Well, it depends.  If you want to "ASSIGN" a /40 to the tunnel broker,
it falls into the category "assignment of networks larger than a /48
to the end user", and that's paperwork.

The way it was meant to be done is doing a sub-allocation (which never
goes to "end-users", unlike an assignment), and IPv6 sub-allocations, as
far as I understand the policy, don't need to be approved by the NCC
beforehand.

Of course, when you sub-allocate all of your space away, and the 
receipients don't use it, you won't be able to get more space for you
- so use with care.
