Decision on Taking Business in Private
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I remind everyone to switch off mobile phones. A full turnout of the committee is anticipated and there are no apologies.
The committee is asked to decide whether it wishes to take in private item 3, which is a briefing on the draft budget, from the budget adviser Eddie Frizzell and the Scottish Parliament information centre, in consideration of its approach to the scrutiny of the draft budget. It is standard practice to take that in private; does the committee agree to do so?
Members indicated agreement.
