Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Christine Grahame):

I welcome everyone to the 13th meeting in 2008 of the Health and Sport Committee. I remind all members and all present in the public gallery to ensure that their mobile phones and BlackBerrys are switched off. I hope that committee members are looking pretty today because the Parliament's photographer will be present to take shots of us for the Parliament's annual report. No apologies have been received.

Under agenda item 1, the committee is invited to agree to take items 4 and 5 in private. Item 4 is consideration of further evidence on the Public Health etc (Scotland) Bill. Item 5 is consideration of our approach to our one-off evidence-taking session on mental health services for deaf and deafblind people. Is that agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
