Items in Private

The Convener (Brian Adam):

I welcome members to the first meeting of the committee in 2006. I remind you that it is a good idea to switch off your mobile phones.

I suggest that we take in private item 4, to allow a full discussion of the policy issues that arose from the stage 1 debate on the Interests of Members of the Scottish Parliament Bill and in particular to allow us to receive legal advice on the courses of action and options that are available to us and the consequences of those. Is that agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

I suggest that we also take in private item 5, to allow us to discuss the selection of witnesses for our review of the code of conduct for MSPs. Are members agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
