Scottish Development International

I remind the committee that we are in public session for the next item, which is consideration of the draft paper about Scottish Development International. The draft paper is the follow-up to the successful evidence-taking session we had at Scottish Enterprise—indeed, the visit that we made to Scottish Enterprise was successful.

The draft paper is in line with the formal and informal comments that were made. It is for the committee to agree that the paper sets out how we want to proceed on the subject of Scottish Development International.

My only comment is a pedantic one. Under point 2, I would like us to give ourselves some distance by adding the word "broad" to the words "support for the strategy".

Is that agreed?

I am quite happy with it as it is.

We could call it "all-party support".

Any other comments? Is everybody happy with that?

Members indicated agreement.
