Deputy Convener

The Convener

The next item of business is the selection of the deputy convener. Members have a note from the clerk setting out the procedure for selecting a deputy convener. The Parliament has agreed that members of the Scottish National Party are eligible to be chosen as the deputy convener of the Public Petitions Committee. That being the case, I invite nominations.

I nominate David Torrance.

David Torrance was chosen as deputy convener.

I welcome Mr Torrance to his new position.
