Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning and welcome, everyone, to the 16th meeting in 2020 of the Local Government and Communities Committee. I once again thank the broadcasting office for helping to organise our meeting. I ask everyone to ensure that their mobile phones are on silent.

Today’s main business is an evidence session on the third sector and Covid-19. Agenda item 1 is a decision on whether to take agenda items 3 and 4 in private. Item 3 is consideration of evidence heard at this meeting and item 4 is consideration of our work programme. As we are meeting remotely, rather than asking whether everyone agrees to take those items in private, I will instead ask whether anyone objects. If there is silence, I will assume that you are content. Does anyone object?

As no member objects, the committee agrees to take items 3 and 4 in private.
