I call today's meeting to order. Under item 1 on our agenda, I ask committee members to agree to take in private agenda item 4, which is consideration of the content of our stage 1 report on the Prostitution (Public Places) (Scotland) Bill, and item 5, which is consideration of the content of our stage 1 report on the Transport and Works (Scotland) Bill. Is that agreed?
I have to go to an important meeting with a minister about a constituency issue later this afternoon, which could not be arranged for any other time. Despite my absence, I have no objection to the items being considered in private.
I disagree.
Tommy Sheridan wishes to record his disagreement to our considering the items in private. Are the other members agreed?
