Interests

The Deputy Convener (Evelyn Tweed)

Good morning and welcome to the 27th meeting of the Education, Children and Young People Committee in 2024. We have apologies from Stephanie Callaghan and I welcome Jackie Dunbar, who is attending as a committee substitute.

I also welcome Douglas Ross and Miles Briggs, who are joining us for the first time and replacing our previous colleagues Sue Webber and Liam Kerr. On behalf of the committee, I thank Sue and Liam for their contributions to our work this session.

As Douglas and Miles are joining us for the first time today, our first item of business is to invite them to declare any relevant interests. I invite Douglas Ross to speak first.

I have nothing to declare.

I also have nothing to declare.
