Eve,

I too commend you for your efforts in getting the security services TC off
the ground.

Due to prior commitments over the next two months, I cannot offer myself as
a candidate for full-time chair until August - but if we can arrange a
co-chair arrangement, then I will offer myself as a candidate now. I think
that the committee will be best served by having two individuals shoulder
the burden of chairing.
