Decisions on Taking Business in Private

The Deputy Convener (Margaret McDougall)

Good morning and welcome to the third meeting in 2014 of the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee. I remind members and everyone present to turn off their mobile phones.

I am the deputy convener of the committee, so because Stewart Stevenson has not yet arrived I will convene the meeting. We also have apologies from Fiona McLeod.

The first item on the agenda is for the committee to decide whether to take in private at future meetings its consideration of a draft report on hybrid bills; a draft report and standing order rule changes on European Union rules; and the next steps for and a draft report on its inquiry into lobbying. Do members agree to take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.

Members indicated agreement.
