Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning, and welcome to the first meeting in 2021 of the COVID-19 Committee. I welcome Gordon Lindhurst MSP, who has an interest in the matters that we will consider today. Gordon, do you wish to declare any registrable interests that are relevant to the committee’s remit?

I have no interests to declare other than what is in my entry in the register of members’ interests. I have nothing to declare for today’s meeting.

The first item on the agenda is to decide whether to take in private agenda item 3, under which the committee will consider the evidence that it heard earlier in the meeting. Are members content to take agenda item 3 in private? If any member disagrees, will they indicate that in the chat function, please?

No member has indicated that they disagree. The committee therefore agrees to take agenda item 3 in private.
