Okay comrades, let us start. To begin today's meeting of the Local Government Committee, I welcome John Young, who is substituting for Keith Harding. It is always a pleasure to have you here, John.
I hope that you will still be saying that at the end of the meeting.
It will be rather a long meeting. I ask the committee to agree to deal with item 3 in private, as we will be considering a draft report. Are members agreed?
