Interests

The Convener (Stewart Maxwell)

Good morning and welcome to the 20th meeting in 2015 of the Education and Culture Committee. I remind everybody to ensure that their electronic devices are switched off.

We move to agenda item 1. I formally welcome to the committee our new member, John Pentland, who is replacing Siobhan McMahon. I want to place on record my appreciation and thanks for the work that Siobhan did since becoming a committee member at the start of the year. She was not with us that long, but it was good to have her on the committee in 2015.

I now invite John Pentland to declare any relevant registrable interests.

I have no relevant interests to declare.
