I now reconvene the meeting.

I seek to move two motions without notice.

I consent to taking the motions without notice.

Motions moved,

That S2M-04485 be taken at this meeting of the Justice 1 Committee.

That S2M-04486 be taken at this meeting of the Justice 1 Committee.—[Stewart Stevenson.]

Motions agreed to.

Are all members familiar with motions S2M-4485 and S2M-4486?

I will read them out. The first is:

That the Justice 1 Committee resolves that the Lord Advocate should deliver to the Committee the report as authored by James Mackay in the matter of the Scottish Criminal Record Office Fingerprint Bureau.

The second is:

That the Justice 1 Committee resolves that the Minister for Justice should deliver to the Committee two reports authored by John MacLeod and a further report authored by Michael Pass in the matter of Shirley McKie v Scottish Ministers.

Do members agree to those motions?

I have not moved them yet.

Let us be clear: I have already decided to accept them; I am now asking the committee whether, having heard the motions, it agrees to them.

May I just formally move them?
