Decisions on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Stewart Stevenson)

I welcome members to the sixth meeting in 2015 of the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee and remind everyone to switch off their mobile phones as they affect the broadcasting system.

Agenda item 1 is a decision on taking business in private. Do members agree to take in private item 7, which is consideration of a complaint?

Members indicated agreement.

The Convener

Agenda item 2 is another decision on taking business in private. Does the committee agree to take in private our consideration of a report from the Commissioner for Ethical Standards in Public Life in Scotland about a complaint and our draft report on the complaint at a future meeting and, in relation to our inquiry on the election of committee conveners, our consideration of the oral evidence under agenda item 6 and our consideration of issues for the draft report and the draft report itself at future meetings?

Members indicated agreement.

The Convener

Agenda item 3 was to be an evidence-taking session with Bruce Crawford MSP on the proposed cross-party group on tourism. Unfortunately, Bruce is ill and unable to attend this morning’s meeting. Therefore the item and the evidence session, which will be relatively brief, have been rescheduled for next week’s meeting.
