<div><div dir="auto">There is nothing amusing nor out of ordinary about it. The veterans can clarify too. The travel policy is about reallocation of the ncsg ec slots as well as ncsg councilors in the event they cannot travel. Because it is gnso councilors travel slot, involvement with policy is needed to be reallocated</div><div dir="auto"> this doesn't mean automatic reallocation but policy committee will apply. Robin Gross can also explain. The councilors have to be present in meetings (including councilors). Finance committee does not have to be present in meetings to carry out its tasks as finance is not the core mission of ncsg if policy committee doesn't apply for travel slot and the ec decides to open it up to the members to apply then finance committee members can apply and justify their attendance and ec can decide. </div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I suggest the finance committee protect the interest of members instead of arguing for being given travel slots. </div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Sat, Jul 7, 2018 at 2:32 PM Remmy Nweke <<a href="mailto:remmyn@gmail.com">remmyn@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div>Dear chair,<div><br></div><div>It has come to my knowledge that there is a draft
