Global Policy for the Allocation of the Remaining IPv4 Address Space

As we are approaching the end of the free pool of IPv4 Addresses - a policy describing what to do with the last address block has been approved by the ICANN bord in March this year..

There are currently 32 unallocated unicast IPv4 /8s. 27 are in the IANA free pool and five are reserved under the Global Policy for the Allocation of the Remaining IPv4 Address Space.
