Welcome to this morning's Health and Community Care Committee meeting. I invite the committee to consider item 4 in private. As members know, the Mental Health (Scotland) Bill has been published in the past couple of days. The committee will receive a briefing on the bill from the Scottish Executive bill team, so to cover our blushes and allow us to ask questions that might seem simplistic before we take evidence on what is a technical bill, I suggest that we hold the briefing in private. Is that agreed?
Does the committee agree to take in private at our meeting on 25 September a briefing by our adviser on the Mental Health (Scotland) Bill?
