Interests
I welcome members to the fourth meeting of the Finance Committee in 2005. I also welcome the press and the public to today's meeting and I remind members to switch off their mobile phones and pagers. We have received apologies from John Swinburne.
I welcome three other people to the committee. Andrew Arbuckle is our new member. He replaces Jeremy Purvis, as was agreed by Parliament last week. Judith Evans, who is seated to the left of Susan Duffy, is now our senior assistant clerk and Edna Stirrat, who is seated in the corner of the room, is the new committee assistant. We still await a replacement for Emma Berry—who is of course irreplaceable—but somebody will emerge in due course.
Agenda item 1 is to ask Andrew Arbuckle to declare any relevant interests.
My interests are registered in the "Register of Interests of Members of the Scottish Parliament".
You have no interests that are specific to the committee.
That is right—there is nothing specific to the committee.
Thank you very much.
