Interests

The Convener (Stewart Maxwell)

Good morning and welcome to the fifth meeting of the Education and Culture Committee in the fourth session. Members and those in the gallery should keep their mobile phones or any other electronic devices they happen to have on their person switched off. Even if they are set to silent mode, they still interfere with the sound system so, for everyone’s benefit, it would be very much appreciated if they could be switched off.

We have received apologies from Joan McAlpine. I welcome in her place the committee substitute, George Adam, and ask him to declare any interests.

I point members to my published declaration of interests. More relevant, perhaps, is the fact that I am still a councillor in Renfrewshire Council.

Thank you very much.
