Dear Colleagues:

When you read the criteria set out for ATRT2 members, they mirror the

qualities that informed my decision to recommend and support Olivier as

ALAC Chair.

Consequently, I here now recommend Olivier as the ALAC's preferred

candidate for the ATRT2 membership and urge your favourable advice and

consent.

Kind regards,

- Carlton
