Scottish Parliament Rural Development Committee Tuesday 22 May 2001 (Afternoon)
[The Convener opened the meeting at 14:03]
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for your attendance. We have received apologies from Elaine Smith, but otherwise all members are present.
I draw members' attention to the length of the agenda today. I intend to move as quickly as possible to discussion of draft reports. However, given that the committee planned not to meet for another two weeks and has since decided to extend that interval to three weeks, there are one or two items that we must deal with first.
