Interests

Good morning and welcome to the 20th meeting in 2020 of the Rural Economy and Connectivity Committee. The meeting will be conducted in a hybrid format, with one member, Stewart Stevenson, participating remotely.

Apologies have been received from Peter Chapman and Richard Lyle. I welcome Graham Simpson and Christine Grahame, who are attending as their respective substitutes.

Agenda item 1 is a declaration of interests. We have a new committee member, Oliver Mundell. The committee met in private last night, but this is Oliver’s first chance to declare publicly any interests that he has.

I have no interests to declare, convener.
