Scottish Parliament National Galleries of Scotland Bill Committee Monday 3 February 2003 (Afternoon)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 14:32]

The Convener (Rhona Brankin):

I welcome the press and the public to this meeting of the National Galleries of Scotland Bill Committee. We have apologies from Margaret Smith, who has a major problem that she has to deal with.

I remind everyone to turn off their mobile telephones—and I will remember to check that I have turned mine off as well. There you go: I have asked everyone to turn off their phones but I have not done so myself. Absolutely fatal.
