Good morning and welcome to the ninth meeting in 2014 of the Justice Committee. I ask everyone to switch off mobile phones and other electronic devices completely, as they interfere with the broadcasting system even when switched to silent.
Sandra White is unable to attend the meeting, you will be pleased to hear, because she has a dreadful cold and we do not want Alison McInnes to get it. We did it on your behalf, Alison.
Agenda item 1 is a decision on taking in private item 4, on our work programme, and item 5, on a further draft response to the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee on its inquiry into the procedures for considering legislation. Do members agree?
Members indicated agreement.
