Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Margaret Mitchell)

Welcome to the Justice Committee’s 21st meeting in 2019. We have received no apologies.

Agenda item 1 is to ask the committee to decide whether to take agenda items 4 and 6 in private. Under agenda item 4, the committee will review the evidence that we will hear today on secure care places for children and young people, and under agenda item 6, we will consider our approach to the work programme in relation to Brexit. We have already agreed at a previous meeting to discuss the Scottish Biometrics Commissioner Bill in private. Do members agree to take agenda items 4 and 6 in private?

Members indicated agreement.

The Convener

I put on the record that last night I received a written submission from the parents of Katie Allan—Linda and Stuart Allan. I acknowledge receipt of that written submission, which we intend to treat as such, and to follow the usual procedures for its circulation and publication.

On behalf of the committee, I thank Daniel Johnson for all his work as a member of the Justice Committee and the Justice Sub-Committee on Policing. He always asked insightful questions, and will be missed by the committee. We look forward to his replacement joining the committee next week.
