<p>Hello<br>
</p>
<p>> but why are fee's going up when RIPE is shrinking? </p>
<p>> If ripe is shrinking, then so should its non-essential
activities and buget.</p>
<p>>Should RIPE have the same budget and staff, when it is
serving fewer members?</p>
<p>Operations should scale with membership count/workload based on
essential services.</p>
<p>> Fewer LIR members should inturn mean a smaller , more
efficient RIPE. <br>
</p>
<p>Yes<br>

Following the discussions last year and again this year, there appears to be no clear consensus among members on how a category-based model would work and the Board does not wish to put another category model forward at the upcoming GM that will be rejected by the members. Rather, the Board will propose a simple model that guarantees adequate funding for 2025 and 2026 - under this proposal, we expect there would be no need for a fee increase for 2026. The Board will work with the RIPE NCC on a more in-depth consultation with the members aimed at arriving at a sustainable solution for 2027 and beyond, possibly involving a new charging scheme task force. </span></p>

This will cover all current services and activities, a 5% staff cost increase, a 2% inflation increase on all non-staff costs, and EUR 1 million for additional work relating to registry complexity and security projects aimed at ensuring the resilience of the Registry and the RIPE NCC more broadly. Any such additional work would be discussed with the membership during Activity Plan and Budget consultations and then need to be approved by the Board. This will also allow some leeway should more LIR accounts close than we expect.</span></p>

Cutting services or activities is not something the Board is planning to do, and such actions would take time and need full consultation with the membership. An overview of the activities and services that the membership fee covers is provided below this email.</span></p>
