year with the planning meeting etc. Doesn't work out. Only a handful of people are engaged with various matters and can speak up in these meetings. We don't need it every year. I have gotten most of the procedures done we needed through emails. Why do we have
to meet with CSG every year? To say what we disagree on? We sure do know that. To work on NCPH stuff? We can get them done via email. <o:p></o:p></p>

to be involved with everything and have to work together. Ncsg and csg leaders don't in many respect and it leads to not having meaningful conversation. No concrete outcome has come out of any intersessional to date. <o:p></o:p></p>
