Interests

The Convener (Stewart Maxwell)

Good morning. I welcome everybody to the second meeting in 2015 of the Education and Culture Committee. I remind all those present that electronic devices should be switched off.

I welcome Siobhan McMahon to the committee as a new member, and I welcome Iain Gray, who is here as a member, but not a member of the committee.

At our previous meeting, Siobhan McMahon was elected in her absence as the committee’s deputy convener. I congratulate her on being elected to that post and invite her to declare any relevant registrable interests.

Thank you, convener. I do not have anything to declare.
