Scottish Parliament Education, Culture and Sport Committee Tuesday 20 March 2001 (Afternoon)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 14:33]

I welcome everyone to the Education, Culture and Sport Committee. I have received apologies from the deputy convener, Cathy Peattie, who is representing the committee on a fact-finding visit to the European Parliament in Brussels.

We all knew that she was going. I am glad that she is on the visit, because she will bring back important information.

Does the committee agree to take item 4 in private? The item is consideration of a draft report, so I suggest that it is in order to take it in private.

Members indicated agreement.
