Good morning, and welcome to the 30th meeting in 2025 of the Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee. Our first item of business is decisions on whether to take items 5, 6 and 7 in private. Item 5 is consideration of the evidence that we will hear today on transport; item 6 is consideration of the committee’s work programme; and item 7 is consideration of our approach to the stage 1 scrutiny of the Ecocide (Scotland) Bill.
To ensure that we carefully adhere to the Parliament’s standing orders, I will split this into two questions. First, I will ask whether we are agreed to take items 5 and 6 in private, and then I will ask whether we are agreed to take item 7 in private, noting that Monica Lennon may not participate in that decision, purely because she is the member who is in charge of that bill. I will not quote the relevant rule, but I am sure that members have all looked it up, as I have. I hope that that is all clear.
Are we agreed to take items 5 and 6 in private?
Members indicated agreement.
With Monica Lennon recusing herself from the following decision, are we also agreed to take item 7 in private?
Members indicated agreement.
