Item in Private

The Convener (Robert Brown):

Good morning. I welcome people to this meeting of the Education Committee. We had a slight technical problem in establishing whether my microphone was working. We are in public session, so people should ensure that their mobile phones and pagers are not on.

Agenda item 1 is to decide whether to take in private item 4, which is consideration of our draft report for the budget process. I am inclined to suggest that not much is at issue and that we should not go into private, but I am interested in members' views. If it is okay with members, we will not move into private.

Members indicated agreement.
