Good morning. I welcome everyone to the 26th meeting in 2020 of the Social Security Committee. We have received two apologies: unfortunately, Alison Johnstone MSP and Shona Robison MSP cannot be with us.
Item 1 is a decision to take in private item 3, which is consideration of the evidence that we will hear this morning. We will also consider the matter of future briefings on the impact of Brexit on Scottish social security. I will assume that everyone agrees to take that item in private unless I see otherwise in the chat box. We have some connectivity issues, so I will give people a little time for that.
That is agreed.
I will suspend briefly before item 2 as I note that we have some information technology and broadcasting issues.
