Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Duncan McNeil):

Good morning and welcome to the 24th meeting this year of the Local Government and Communities Committee. I remind everyone to switch off their mobile phones and BlackBerrys. We have received apologies from Johann Lamont.

Our first item is to seek members' agreement to take in private item 4, under which we will consider whether to invite other witnesses to give oral evidence on the Scottish Government's 2009-10 budget proposals. I remind members that such items are usually taken in private. Are members agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
