Dear Jonathan,

thank you very much for this follow-up.

Two ALAC members have volunteered to help in the drafting Team:

- Tijani ben Jemaa (AFRALO)
- Leon Sanchez (LACRALO)

They are both CC'ed to this message & will hopefully be able to confirm
today's attendance at 18h00 shortly.

Kind regards,

Olivier
