Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Finlay Carson)

Good morning and welcome to the eighth meeting in 2026 of the Rural Affairs and Islands Committee. Before we begin, I ask everyone to ensure that their electronic devices are switched to silent. I will do that myself, because I forgot to do so earlier.

Our first agenda item is a decision on whether to take item 6 in private and to consider the evidence taken as part of our follow-up inquiry into salmon farming in Scotland in private at item 7 and at future meetings. Are we agreed to do so?

Members indicated agreement.
