Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Christine Grahame)

I welcome everyone to the sixth meeting in 2016 of the Justice Committee and ask those present to switch off mobile phones and other electronic devices, as they interfere with broadcasting even when they are switched to silent. We have received apologies from Margaret McDougall.

I ask the committee whether we can move to agenda item 9, on the Armed Forces Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation, and whether we can discuss that item in private. Does the committee agree?

Members indicated agreement.

We now move into private session.

10:07 Meeting continued in private.
