I'm glad the applicants for the proposed constituency recognizes the
membership criteria for the NCSG.

However, if this is the case, then why would the proposed constituency even
need to bother with using the confusing "not-for-profit" label?   Wouldn't
it be more clear to identify, as others have suggested, as a proposed
"member or philanthropic service delivery" constituency?

Another question: If the "not-for-profit" membership requirement is
maintained, given its various meanings across juridictions, how do the
applicants propose to provide due diligence on membership applications?

Regards,

Brenden Kuerbis
