I'm not sure but they may have the option of not putting up directors at all, but I think that did not come out on top in the call.

I don't think this is healthy in any way, I don't see the advantage of having nomcom populate interim. Most organisations think internal when it comes to anything "interim", that is not a coincidence it's to reduce complexity and ensure continuity because those internal already know the history.
