Scottish Parliament Public Petitions Committee Tuesday 8 May 2001 (Morning)
[The Convener opened the meeting at 10:06]
I welcome everyone to the seventh meeting in 2001 of the Public Petitions Committee. I ask those who have mobile phones or other electronic equipment with them to turn them off, as they interfere with the recording equipment in the room.
We have a busy agenda, as members will see from the packed public gallery. We have six new petitions to consider and the petitioners are present to speak to three of them. We must also consider eight detailed responses to previous petitions.
There are no apologies from members.
