Item in Private

I welcome everybody to this afternoon's Health Committee meeting. I have apologies from Helen Eadie; Kenneth Macintosh is the Labour committee substitute and he will attend in her place. Duncan McNeil has also tendered apologies. Shona Robison is running late and will appear shortly.

Item 1 is consideration of an item in private. Members will recall that the unusual timing of last week's meeting meant that today's agenda had to be circulated before that meeting. Last week, the committee agreed to review in private the evidence that it hears on the Human Tissue (Scotland) Bill after each oral evidence session, so I remind members that item 5 will be taken in private, in accordance with last week's agreement.
