The New Sparta Central Committee has met for the first time at NS GHQ, though nearly half of the 64 members attended remotely. The new body was addressed by NS Commander Knobhead who said the committee would meet once a quarter and help guide NS policy as well as elect the NS President.
Although the meeting was off the record it is thought the light patrol ship requirement was discussed with Knobhead and Sea Urchin directing a discussion as to whether to go with the Mariner design or a version of the Pentekonter.
