Rural Employment

The Convener:

We will move back to item 2 on the agenda. Cathy was unfortunately not present, but I, the two Richards—Richard Davies, the committee clerk, and Richard Walsh, the senior assistant clerk—and Irene McGugan met to discuss appointing an adviser for our inquiry on the impact of changing employment patterns on rural areas. We propose that this part of the meeting be taken in private.

Meeting continued in private until 13:17.
