BORDER LINES: PARIS - Chambon joins Courdes des Comptes

The Cour des Comptes, France’s national audit organisation, has appointed Francois Chambon as its new communications, documentation and archives chief. Chambon replaces Jean-Francois Bureau, who left to head the French army’s information and PR service last summer (PR Week, 24 July). Chambon, who started work last month, will report to the organisation’s secretary-general, Gerard Ganser, and oversee 29 staff. He was previously an adviser on organising elections at the French ministry of the interior.
