    <p>I would say try to get two.  Folks who are thus engaged can work
      together to help solve our longstanding participation issues.  The
      more the merrier, in other words.</p>

        <div>Dear all,</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>I hope you are well and safe.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>As you all are aware, the Policy Committee has been in
          transition  mode since ICANN69 and during that time we rushed
          to meet some of our GNSO responsibilities as part of the ICANN
          community, sometimes at the very last minute and often in an
          unplanned manner. <br>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Fortunately, I believe the PC is now fully formed with the
          appointments from the constituencies now complete and we can
          start planning and executing the tasks of the PC in a
          procedural manner.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>As a reminder, from section
          <i>2.5 The Policy Committee</i> of
          the NCSG charter,</div>
        <div>The NCSG Policy Committee is responsible for:<br>
          <ul>
            <li>Discussion and development of substantive policies and
              statements issued in the name of the NCSG. This activity
              will require coordination with the membership and the
              Constituencies;</li>
            <li>Organize policy initiatives on behalf of NCSG
              membership, including GNSO Policy Development Processes
              initiatives from the membership;</li>
            <li>Provide policy research and guidance to NCSG
              representatives on the GNSO Council;</li>
            <li>Keep membership informed of GNSO Council activities;</li>
            <li>Organize, appoint where appropriate, and track NCSG
              participation in GNSO and other pertinent Working Groups.</li>
            <li>Organization and oversight of NCSG participation in any
              GNSO Council-related tasks, whether mandated by Bylaws,
              Council Procedures or Council decisions.</li>
          </ul>
        </div>
        <div><font size="4"><b>PC Vice-chair(s) Selection</b></font></div>
        <div>Now that the PC is complete, I'd like to also bring up the
          issue of PC vice-chair(s) election as stated in section 2.5.3.
          (b) of the NCSG charter which states that:<i><b> One or more
              Vice-Chairs may be chosen by the NCSG‑PC on a yearly basis
            </b></i>and get your thoughts on whether we need one or two
          vice-chairs for the PC before we start the process of choosing
          the vice-chair(s).</div>
        <div>  <br>
        </div>
        <div>It is my hope that we can start the process of the
          vice-chair(s) election once we agree on how many we need. So I
          look forward to your urgent input on this issue.<br>
