Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the first meeting in 2016 of the Public Petitions Committee. I wish any colleagues I have not seen before today a happy new year.

Once more with feeling, convener.

The Convener

Yes. That might be the last time that I say that.

We have received apologies from John Wilson, who told me that he has to be at another event this morning.

Agenda item 1 is to seek the committee’s agreement to take in private agenda item 4, which is on witness expenses. Do members agree to do that?

Members indicated agreement.
