I welcome everyone to the first meeting in session 5 of the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee and remind everyone present to turn off their mobile phones and other electronic devices. I am very pleased to welcome to the committee new members of Parliament in particular.
All members will be aware that one of the endearing conventions of our committee structure is that the oldest member of the committee gets to do the first part of the meeting before we elect a convener. Before we move to that job, I invite members to declare their interests.
I will start. I am a farmer and a landowner. I think that that is all that I need to declare.
I have no specific interests to declare for the committee, but obviously I have interests that the Parliament will publish shortly.
I do not think that I have any relevant interests to declare.

I do not know whether this is particularly relevant, but I am a shareholder in two private limited companies. I am a director of both companies, but I am non-salaried and non-working. Both relate to the retail sector.
In light of the broad scope of the committee, I thought that it was important to make a full declaration of that.
I do not think that I have any relevant interests other than that I am a councillor in Perth and Kinross Council. That may have some relevance.
That is terrific. Thank you very much.
