Scottish Parliament Rural Affairs Committee Friday 3 December 1999 (Morning)
[The Convener opened the meeting at 10:15]
Good morning. The committee has had a short private meeting. I want to mention in passing the second item on the agenda, which concerns the appointment of advisers to a committee that will report on rural poverty.
Irene McGugan and I have met to discuss the matter. Unfortunately, Cathy Peattie was not present at the meeting. We want to discuss the matter further in private. I suggest that we postpone this item until the end of the meeting so that we can deal with it quickly before we go home.
Are we agreed on that?
Members indicated agreement.
