Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning everyone, and welcome to the fifth meeting in 2017 of the Rural Economy and Connectivity Committee. Before we move to the first agenda item, I remind everyone present to switch off their mobile phones. No apologies have been received for today’s meeting.

Item 1 is a decision on whether to take in private items 4 and 5, which involve, respectively, consideration of a draft report on crofting and discussion of the committee’s response to the Presiding Officer’s commission on parliamentary reform. Do members agree that we should take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.
