There's probably a legal mess around a government entity renting IP addresses. If the entity is registered as an end user (instead of as an ISP) then such rentals might also be considered fraudulent.
On a purely pragmatic level, it's also an exceedingly bad idea to let a private party who may turn out to be a criminal use IP addresses authentically registered to your government agency to commit crimes. As an end-user, you won't be able to SWIP information about the rental, leading angry law enforcement offers to knock upon your door.
