French Prime Minister Francois Fillon Tuesday said in a written
statement that Jean-Ludovic Silicani has been put forward to head
France's telecommunications regulator Arcep.
The announcement follows the departure for personal and
health-related reasons of Jean-Claude Mallet, who has only held the
post for four months.
The French parliament and senate will be consulted before the
appointment of Silicani, the prime minister's office said in a
statement.
Until Silicani is officially nominated, Mallet will continue as
head of Arcep, the prime minister's office said.
