Interests

The Deputy Convener (John Wilson)

Good morning and welcome to the 20th meeting in 2013 of the Local Government and Regeneration Committee. I ask everyone to ensure that they have switched off mobile phones and other electronic equipment.

We have received apologies from the convener of the committee, Kevin Stewart. I welcome Christian Allard, who is substituting for him as an ordinary member of the committee.

Agenda item 1 is a declaration of interests. In accordance with section 3.5 of volume 3 of the code of conduct for members of the Scottish Parliament, I invite Christian Allard to declare any interests that are relevant to the committee’s remit.

I have stood down from all the community groups that I was part of before I became an MSP, so I have nothing to declare.

Thank you.
