Interests

The Convener (David Stewart)

Good morning, everyone. I welcome you all to the Public Petitions Committee’s second meeting this session. We have received apologies from Richard Lyle, for whom Kevin Stewart will substitute. I ask Kevin Stewart to declare any relevant interests.

I declare an interest as an elected member of Aberdeen City Council, which will inevitably come up. I also declare an unremunerated interest as the chair—until tomorrow—of the north east of Scotland transport partnership.

The Convener

I understand that Bill Walker will attend the meeting, but that he is running late. We expect him in about half an hour.

I remind everyone to switch off all mobile phones and other electronic devices, because they interfere with our sound system.
