What shocked me when I got the attached template was how the English was 
not grammatically correct and how unwilling the NCC was willing to make any 
change to the template.

Just taking section II:
II. The LIR made an appropriate control to the correctness of the 
information provided by the Legacy Resource Holder and wishes to register 
the Legacy Resources on their LIR account on behalf of the Legacy Resource 
Holder.

I had suggested the more correct form of:
II. The LIR has established the correctness of the information provided by 
the Legacy Resource Holder and wishes to register the Legacy Resources on 
their LIR account on behalf of the Legacy Resource Holder.

but was turned down (as well as the 4 other changes I suggested to sections 
2+3).

  This template was never brought to the membership, but is presented as a 
"done deal" that every legacy holder has to sign.

I call it NCC out of control.
