Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (James Dornan)

Good morning and welcome to the 24th meeting in 2019 of the Local Government and Communities Committee. I remind everyone present to turn off their mobile phones.

Under the first agenda item, the committee is invited to consider whether to take agenda items 3 and 4 in private. Item 3 is consideration of evidence that we will today as part of the committee’s pre-budget scrutiny, and item 4 is consideration of the stage 1 report on the Non-Domestic Rates (Scotland) Bill. Do members agree to take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.
