Scottish Parliament Subordinate Legislation Committee Tuesday 18 November 2003 (Morning)
[The Convener opened the meeting at 10:30]
I welcome colleagues to the 13th meeting this session of the Subordinate Legislation Committee. I have received no apologies.
I begin by saying that the committee was very sad to hear about the death last week of Alistair Fleming, assistant clerk to the committee. The Presiding Officer has sent a letter to Mrs Fleming and I will also write to her. Alistair did very good work for the committee and we are very sorry at this sad loss.
Members of the committee would like formally to record our collective sadness and to express our sympathies to Alistair Fleming's widow and family.
I knew Alistair for quite a long time; I knew him when he worked in the local authority.
