Decision on Taking Business in Private
Good morning. I welcome everyone to the first meeting in 2013 of the Local Government and Regeneration Committee. Happy new year to everyone—I am sure that it will be a fruitful year for the committee.
This is not the first work that the committee has undertaken this week. We spent a full day in Cumbernauld on Monday. I thank the Scottish Wildlife Trust, North Lanarkshire Council and, in particular, the good people of Cumbernauld and the other communities in North Lanarkshire who made the effort to engage with us on Monday. It was of great benefit and I hope that we can do more of that in future.
As usual, I ask everyone to ensure that they have switched off mobile phones and other electronic equipment.
Agenda item 1 it is a decision on taking business and private. Do we agree to take items 10, 11, 12 and 13 in private?
Members indicated agreement.
