Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Kevin Stewart)

Good morning and welcome to the 20th meeting in 2015 of the Local Government and Regeneration Committee. I hope that everyone had a good summer break. I ask everyone present to switch off mobile phones and other electronic equipment, as they affect the broadcasting system. Some committee members might consult tablets during the meeting, because we provide meeting papers in digital format.

We have received apologies from Alex Rowley MSP.

Agenda item 1 is consideration of whether to take in private agenda items 3 and 4, which relate to the Footway Parking and Double Parking (Scotland) Bill and the committee’s approach to its inquiry into arm’s-length external organisations. Are members content to take agenda items 3 and 4 in private?

Members indicated agreement.
