Alain,
I'm not sure what you mean by "approve for NPOC membership".
We are a committee of NCSG members voting to approve applicants to
NCSG membership.
Approval for constituency memberships is a separate process that
happens after NCSG has accepted them for membership, and is done by
the individual constituencies.
So we (NCSG-EC) are not approving anything for NPOC - this is an NCSG
activity we are doing on this list. I hope that clarifies this task.
Thanks,
Robin
