Scottish Parliament Public Petitions Committee Tuesday 23 October 2001 (Morning)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 10:04]

I welcome everyone to the 12th meeting in 2001 of the Public Petitions Committee. I also welcome members back from the recess—I hope that they are all refreshed and raring to go. I remind members to turn off any phones or electronic equipment that they have with them, rather than disturb the meeting.

We have received no apologies, and I welcome to the meeting Ian Jenkins, Christine Grahame and Robin Harper, who are here to support individual petitions.
