Deputy Convener

The Convener

The next item is to choose our deputy convener. Prior to doing that, I express very sincere thanks and gratitude to Alex Johnstone for the work that he has done not only in this committee but in the Devolution (Further Powers) Committee, which we were both members of in the previous parliamentary session.

Members: Hear, hear.

The Convener

On behalf of the committee, I pass on our best wishes to Alex and his family.

Parliament has agreed that only members of the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party are eligible for nomination as deputy convener of the committee. I invite nominations for that position.

I nominate Adam Tomkins.

The Convener

Only one nomination has been received, so I invite the committee to agree that Adam Tomkins be chosen as deputy convener of the committee. Are we agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

Adam Tomkins was chosen as deputy convener.

I congratulate Adam Tomkins and look forward to working with him.

Thank you—me too.
