Interests

Good morning. I welcome members to the Education and Culture Committee’s 24th meeting in 2012. I remind members and people in the public gallery to ensure that electronic devices are switched off at all times.

I welcome George Adam, who is a new member of the committee, and Mary Scanlon, who is here as a substitute for Liz Smith. Apologies have been received from Liz Smith and Colin Beattie, who is another new member of the committee. I welcome Marco Biagi back to the committee as Colin Beattie’s substitute.

Agenda item 1 is to invite George Adam to declare any registrable interests that are relevant to the committee’s remit.

I refer to my published declaration of interests. For completeness, I say that I was a councillor in Renfrewshire Council until May this year.

Thank you.

Does Mary Scanlon wish to declare any registrable interests?

I, too, refer members to my published declaration of interests.

Thank you very much.
