<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=utf-8"></head><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class="">Hi<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">NCUC urgently need to appoint a new representative to the NCSG EC as Tapani will be Chair of NCSG, i.e. no longer one of NCUC’s representatives on the EC. Normally we’d wait until the new NCUC EC is in place to do such appointments, but it’s not an option since Tapani is NCSG chair from tomorrow and we must have a replacement in place. The incoming EC can appoint the other rep as soon as it’s in office.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The simple and best solution is to appoint Rafik, who is actually running his last NCSG EC meeting as I write. Rafik has agreed to this. Continuity in representation is really needed here, as there’s a lot of dense history and complexity to the inter-constituency dynamics and operations of the EC, plus Rafik has been dealing with the Board on these matters.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">So I’m formally proposing the appointment of Rafik as one of our EC reps for 2016. Please let me know if you agree with this.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Thanks</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Bill</div><div class=""><br class=""><div apple-content-edited="true" class="">
