Good morning and welcome to the third meeting of the Rural Economy and Connectivity Committee. I remind everyone to switch off their mobile phones as they affect the broadcasting system. As meeting papers come in digital format, it is perfectly all right to use laptops to read them.
We have received apologies from Stewart Stevenson, who has to be away on personal business.
Emma Harper has stepped down from the committee. Although she was on the committee for a very short time, she was extremely diligent in responding to and taking an interest in the committee’s business, and I thank her for that.
Agenda item 1 is a declaration of interests. I welcome our new member, Mairi Evans, to the committee. In accordance with section 3 of the code of conduct, I ask her to declare any interests relevant to the committee’s remit.
I am a councillor for Angus Council.
Thank you very much; that was very simple.
