The addition is fine with me.

As for who to submit it from, my two cents:  You seem to have a green light from NCUC, but have not heard officially from NPOC.  I would suggest that it be submitted from NCUC unless you hear from NPOC Chair, V-Chair, NCUC Policy Chair or NPOC  in time.  They, and consequently NCSG, can always send in a late endorsement of the statement if it is ok with them.  Better that, then to find ourselves in a situation where it gets submitted from NCSG and then we end up in a kerfuffle over not having had agreement and have people disputing its legitimacy.    Alternatively, if the NCSG Chair, NCSG PC Chair based on rough consensus, or all NPOC reps in NCSG-PC tell you it is fine to submit it from NCSG, go for it.
