Item in Private

Welcome to the 24th meeting this year of the Enterprise and Culture Committee. First, I ask everybody to switch off their mobile phones and not just to switch them to silent mode—even when they are silent they can cause problems.

We have received apologies from Murdo Fraser and from Susan Deacon, and I welcome Fiona Hyslop, who is here for the session on the Further and Higher Education (Scotland) Bill.

Item 1 is to seek the agreement of the committee to discuss item 3 in private. Is that agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
