Deputy Convener

Good afternoon, colleagues. I thank Rob Gibson for doing the necessary convening of the first two agenda items. Members will be aware that the Parliament agreed to a Parliamentary Bureau motion that said that the deputy convener will be a member of the Scottish National Party. Could I have a nomination?

I nominate Rob Gibson.

Mr Rob Gibson was chosen as deputy convener.

I congratulate Rob Gibson. We look forward to working with you.

As Mr Mundell has now joined us, we will flip back to the declaration of interests. Would you care to say whether you have anything to declare?

I do not think that I have anything to declare. I always declare that I am a member of the Law Society of Scotland, just in case that is raised as an issue by anybody.

That is more than enough.

Other than the interests that are on my entry in the register of members' interests, I have nothing to declare.

I thank Mr Mundell for that.
