Ok, one last time then. There were comments made on this list before the 
RIPE 64 meeting in regards to the information listed in the URL above. 
So, at that meeting, the NCC were asked to provide further information 
and far more details about the specific laws being followed. At this 
point I do not have a timeline for this response, but hopefully I'll be 
able to inform the list soon.

No, you said that as you weren't always monitoring the list we would 
need to post any information to your website. I simply stated that as 
always we would report back to this list and I was not going to 
undertake to post the information directly to your website as well. I 
have not objected to you sharing your URL as I wouldn't object to anyone 
sharing a useful anti-abuse URL to this list.
