Decisions on Taking Business in Private

Good morning. I welcome everyone to the 27th meeting in 2013 of the Justice Committee. I ask everyone to switch off mobile phones and other electronic devices completely as they interfere with the broadcasting system even when they are switched to silent. We have received apologies from Margaret Mitchell.

I invite members to agree to take items 3 and 5 in private. Item 3 is a review of the evidence that we have received to date on the Criminal Justice (Scotland) Bill at stage 1, and item 5 is consideration of our work programme. We have already agreed to consider our draft stage 1 report on the Tribunals (Scotland) Bill in private, and we will do that under item 4.

Do members agree to take items 3 and 5 in private?

Members indicated agreement.
