We prove the following result: Let B be a smooth, irreducible, quasi-projective variety over the complex numbers and assume that B has a projective compactification B such that B - B is of codimension at least two in B. Then there exists a family of smooth ireducible curves Cqq ∈ Q in B parametrised by an irreducible variety Q such that if p: A → B is an abelian scheme and q ∈ Q is a generic point, then the restriction map on sections A(B) → A(Cq) is an isomorphism. This answers, in a special case, a question of Graber, Harris, Mazur and Starr.
