[The Oldest Member of the Committee opened the meeting at 15:30]
Colleagues, I welcome you warmly to the first meeting of the Standards Committee. I have been informed that I am the oldest member and so have to take the chair for all of maybe one minute. I ask colleagues to confirm that they have their briefing pack with them for today's agenda. It seems that they do. It will be my duty to preside over the first two items of business: the declaration of members' interests and the committee's choice of convener. I will then pass the chair to the convener.
