Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning. I welcome members to the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee’s 29th meeting in 2015. As always, I ask members to switch off mobile phones, and I note that we have received apologies from Richard Baker.

Agenda item 1 is a decision on taking items 9 to 12 in private. Item 9 will allow the committee to further consider the delegated powers in the Alcohol (Licensing, Public Health and Criminal Justice) (Scotland) Bill, item 10 will enable the committee to consider a draft of its first quarterly report for the parliamentary year 2015-16, item 11 will enable the committee to reflect on the evidence that it has heard on the remedial order subject to affirmative procedure, and item 12 is for the committee to consider its draft stage 1 report on the Succession (Scotland) Bill. Does the committee agree to take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.
