Good morning and welcome to the 11th meeting in 2016 of the Health and Sport Committee. I ask everyone to switch off their mobile phones because they can interfere with the sound system as well as with the committee’s proceedings. However, my colleagues may use tablet devices instead of hard copies of the committee papers.
I have received an apology from Rhoda Grant. Malcolm Chisholm is still at the Devolution (Further Powers) Committee and will join us shortly.
The first item on the agenda is a decision on whether to consider in private item 10, which is consideration of the main themes arising from today’s evidence session. We would normally take such discussions in private. Does the committee agree to take item 10 in private?
Members indicated agreement.
