It is also important to work as team and think about our role and duties as outlined in the charter and the expectations from NCSG members.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">A first action would be the election of a NCSG PC chair and agree on the process. It will be good to document the process for the future and one thing to add to the PC operating procedures project (on hold for a while and I will share the draft soon).

GNSO council had its SPS meeting last week and there were a lot of discussions about priorities and that will come to us as SG soon where we need to define our policy priorities for this year and share our input to council. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Please let me know about your suggestions/ideas. Currently the monthly policy call is not a PC call per se but we can think if we need our separate call to brainstorming and conduct our business. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Best,</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Rafik </div></div>
