To be fair, Bangail did turn up for a bit.
..but she seems to have wandered off again..

Haven't seen him at any of our meetings. Yet, come to think of it, apart from Baingil's brief apparance.. I've hardly seen anyone at any of our meetings.

Isn't life in general better when nobody bothers to show up at meetings?

I forgot what this commission was for...
Cleaning up the parks, or something?

In a sense perhaps. Certainly we've been responsible for the sale of a fair number of papers, if nothing else.

Well, I suppose we could add another member to the Commission.
I will consult with any of my collegues, if present, and inform you of our decision.

All you have to do is vote on the final report. (A yay or nay will do.)
You can also propose any changes you wish, and those will be voted on as well.
Apart from that, there is more basic tasks like public outreach and so on, but these are completely voluntary.
Welcome on board.
