[NCSG-PC] [NCSG-EC] Fwd: PLEASE READ: NCPH election for Board seat 14

Tue Apr 14 17:07:46 EEST 2020

Hi James,

thanks :) I believe it should be Stephanie as NCSG chair and already dealt
with Dean from CSG.
we just need to make it formal regarding the vote: voting yes for Mathew
Shears for seat #14. details about election are being flush out either a
vote through phone call or through tally ballot. NCSG chair as
representative will vote on NCSG behalf.
Also Carlton as NCA was reached out and he confirmed his support for Matt.

Best,

Rafik
