[NCSG-PC] Fwd: [council] Call for Volunteers for SCCI | Please Respond by 6 January

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi Tomslin,

It seems that we vmcab have 1 councilor from NCSG and 2 additional
representatives from NCSG ( not sure how they end up with 14 reps from
SG/C).
So I assume there will be a call for candidates to appoint 2
representatives.

Best,

Rafik
