Agenda item 4 is consideration of the committee’s annual report for the parliamentary year from 11 May 2014 to 10 May 2015. The convention is that we consider the draft report in public. We need to hear comments from members before we consider making any changes to the report, but I presume that, since the report is a factual account and record of our work, there will not be any changes. I am happy to take any comments.
I am not suggesting any changes to the report. I just wanted to highlight the significant amount of work that we have done on health inequalities, and in particular our debate in the chamber on 26 March 2015, in which we sought the advice of all the other committee conveners in the Parliament who were looking to play their part in tackling health inequalities. I am sure that we will wish to return to that issue and work with the other committees on it. I know that the convener will want to push forward with that work on an on-going basis. For the Official Report, I want to draw attention to the fact that our health inequalities work will endure, and will do so on a cross-committee basis.
Thank you.
As there are no other comments, does the committee agree to the draft annual report?
Members indicated agreement.
