Hi,

I would like to thank the NCSG executive committee and chair for handling
this and responding in due time and swiftly, showing at the end a spirit of
collegiality.
I also see that we got a healthy debate with participation of many of our
 members, that people could from procedural standpoint use existing
provision in the charter on the matter . In addition to that, others are
already proposing possible solutions for future.

Best Regards,

Rafik Dammak
