I welcome everyone to the 31st meeting in 2015 of the Justice Committee. I ask everyone to switch off mobile phones and other electronic devices, as they interfere with broadcasting even when they are switched to silent. Apologies have been received from Alison McInnes.
Agenda item 1 is a decision on whether to take items 10, 11 and 12 in private. Item 10 is consideration of a revised draft stage 1 report on the Community Justice (Scotland) Bill; item 11 is consideration of our approach to budget scrutiny; and item 12 relates to our proposed scrutiny of the draft Victims’ Rights (Scotland) Regulations 2015. Does the committee agree to take those items in private?
Members indicated agreement.
