<div dir="ltr">Hi Robin,<div><br></div><div>thanks for sharing this information.</div><div>yes the NCSG charter provides the possibility to appoint Vice-chair(s).

<br>
Tapani has asked us (NCSG EC) to appoint Joan Kerr as NCSG’s Vice Chair. The NCSG Charter provides that the EC may appoint a vice chair, although no duties or job description is provided in the charter for a VC. It is my understanding that this is a proposal for a purely administrative vice-chair position and not one with decision making authority, as that would conflict with the charter and the balance of members on the NCSG EC.<br>
<br>
So I wanted to bring that question to the attention of the NCUC EC for further consideration and feedback from you all.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
