Hi Matogoro

Thank you for your note, and I look forward to continuing our work together
on the SSR2

Karen, would it be possible for a member of the travel support team to
contact Matogoro and resolve the outstanding issues relating to
reimbursement of historic travel expenses?

Best wishes

Emily
