Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Clare Adamson)

Good morning, and a warm welcome to the 14th meeting in 2020 of the Education and Skills Committee. We have received apologies from Alex Neil MSP. We are joined by his substitute, Gil Paterson MSP.

I invite the deputy convener to update the committee on his interests.

Daniel Johnson (Edinburgh Southern) (Lab)

I wanted to update the committee, given that I am joining the board of trustees of the ADHD Foundation, which is a charity that is registered in England and Wales. It seeks to promote understanding of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and it is a training provider with regard to ADHD and other neurodevelopmental disorders.

The Convener

Thank you, Mr Johnson.

Agenda item 1 is a decision on whether to take agenda item 6 in private. As no member has objected, we agreed to take item 6 in private.
