Scottish Parliament Transport and the Environment Committee Wednesday 7 March 2001 (Morning)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 10:05]

The Convener (Mr Andy Kerr):

Good morning, colleagues. I welcome those on the public benches to the seventh meeting in 2001 of the Transport and the Environment Committee.

Today we will consider several public petitions, which have been circulated to members, as well as the next steps of our inquiry into the management and maintenance of trunk roads.

I have received apologies from Des McNulty, who is attending the Enterprise and Lifelong Learning Committee this morning, and from Fiona McLeod, who will join us later. I have received no other apologies.

Agenda item 1 invites the committee to agree to take agenda items 5 and 6 in private. Item 5 is a review of the evidence that we have gathered in the water inquiry and item 6 is consideration of the names of possible advisers to the committee on this year's budget process.

Is it agreed that we take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.
