Good morning and welcome to the third meeting of the City of Edinburgh Council (Portobello Park) Bill Committee in 2014. I am the convener of the committee. I welcome everyone in the gallery.
The meeting is likely to be shorter than originally scheduled as a result of our accommodating requests from some objector groups to change the date of their evidence session. Our updated timetable is available on our web page. We do not foresee any further changes to that timetable.
The first item on the agenda is to consider whether to take in private item 3, under which we will review the evidence that we will hear in this meeting, and whether to review in private evidence that we will hear in future meetings at the end of them. Do members agree to that approach?
Members indicated agreement.
