Good morning and welcome to the seventh meeting in 2014 of the Welfare Reform Committee. I ask everyone to ensure that their mobile phones and other electronic devices are switched off.
The convener has sent his apologies for not being able to make this morning’s first evidence-taking session, but he hopes to attend for the second. I will therefore convene the first session, but I must apologise for my voice. I am suffering a little bit from tonsillitis, so you will need to bear with me.
The first item of business is a decision on whether to take in private item 4, which is consideration of today’s evidence on food banks. Are members agreed?
Members indicated agreement.
