If you are asking for the new list to be shut down or have all members 
removed, what do you propose LUV does to communicate with members in 
future?  The list of email addresses on the old LUV server has always 
been considered as the one and only "source of truth" as the list of LUV 
members.  Anyone on that list is a member, by definition.

If we do not accept that the LUV committee has access to that list and 
can contact those people, we are effectively declaring the current group 
illegitimate and will need to close the subcommittee.
