Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the 21st meeting in 2006 of the Justice 2 Committee. We have received no apologies. I welcome Karen Whitefield, who is the member in charge of the Christmas Day and New Year's Day Trading (Scotland) Bill, on which we will take evidence. I remind everyone to ensure that their telephones and pagers are switched off. I apologise for the slight delay in starting, but my train was delayed and we had some business to discuss.
