The Convener (Joan McAlpine)

Good morning, and welcome to the 18th meeting in 2017 of the Culture, Tourism, Europe and External Relations Committee. I remind members and the public to turn off mobile phones. Any members who are using electronic devices to access committee papers should please ensure that they are turned to silent. Apologies have been received from Jackson Carlaw MSP.

Our first item of business is to welcome Rachael Hamilton MSP back to the committee and invite her to declare any relevant interests.

Thank you, convener. I draw members’ attention to my entry in the register of interests, which shows that I own a hospitality business in the Borders.
