“Dealing with offending by young people”

The Convener:

I bring the meeting to order. We move on to agenda item 5, on "Dealing with offending by young people". The idea is to consider further the information that has been submitted by the Scottish Executive. Members will have received copies of the letter that I received from the Scottish Executive. I invite members to make any comments that they wish to make. I shall then invite the Auditor General or David Pia, from the Auditor General's team, to comment. We can then consider whether any action is required, following the Executive's response. Do members have any points to raise in regard to the letter?

Members:

No.

The Convener:

I felt that it answered our points, although I wondered whether some of the points could have been answered in an earlier letter rather than through our writing to the Executive again. Does the Auditor General's team have any comments to make?

Mr Black:

I do not think that we have any comments to make. We share your view that it is a full and appropriate response.

That being the case, I suggest that we are content with the response and need take no further action. Is that agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
