Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning. Welcome to the fourth meeting in 2012 of the Rural Affairs, Climate Change and Environment Committee. Members and the public should turn off mobile phones and BlackBerrys, as leaving them on flight mode will affect the broadcasting system.

We have apologies from Richard Lyle. I welcome Jean Urquhart, who is attending as a committee substitute.

Under agenda item 1, I ask the committee to agree to take in private item 6, on the European Commission’s work programme; item 7, which involves consideration of the evidence session on the Long Leases (Scotland) Bill; and future consideration of evidence heard on the Long Leases (Scotland) Bill. Do we agree to do so?

Members indicated agreement.
