I beleive this is a false statement.  

The NCSG-EC is composed of both NCUC and NPOC.
Yes they have yet to learnt to work together, but the NCUC is not controlling the NCSG.

Even the previous NCSG-EC had an NPOC member on it.

And I have been trying to get the NPOC members to join the NCSG for over a year, but most refused to do so until they got their constituency.
And further, on the vote, of the NPOC members who had been accepted as members, only a few ever bothered to check in, hence like most of the NCUC inactive members, cannot vote.  This has NOTHING to do with the NCSG-EC or allegations of prejudice by NCUC.

Which made me curious about their commitment to membership.

In my opinion the only reason NPOC is not involved in the debate is because the NPOC has not bothered to involve itself in the debate.
