Interests

The Convener (Cathy Peattie):

Welcome to the 21st meeting of the Equal Opportunities Committee in 2006. We have received apologies from Carolyn Leckie and Jamie McGrigor.

I welcome Margaret Smith back to the committee and ask her if she has any interests to declare.

I have no interests to declare. I am delighted to be back for my third stint on the Equal Opportunities Committee.

The Convener:

Welcome back, Margaret.

I would like to record my thanks to Nora Radcliffe for her work on the committee over the past year, particularly on the disability inquiry. She took a great interest in the work that we have done on the barriers facing disabled people. We will miss her.
