Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning, and welcome to the public part of the committee’s 31st meeting in 2020. Mike Rumbles has sent his apologies. I ask members to make sure that their mobile phones are on silent. The meeting will be conducted in a hybrid format, with some of our members and our witnesses participating remotely.

Under agenda item 1, the committee is asked to consider taking item 5 in private, to allow the committee to review the evidence heard on the implications of Brexit for the rural economy in Scotland inquiry update. Does everyone agree to take that item in private? We are agreed.
