Convener

The Deputy Convener

Our next task is to choose a convener. Parliament has agreed that only members of the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party are eligible for nomination as convener. I understand that Douglas Ross is the Conservative nominee for convener.

Douglas Ross was chosen as convener.

I now hand over to Douglas, who will convene the rest of the meeting.
