Item 3 is consideration of our approach to the financial memorandum to the Offences (Aggravation by Prejudice) (Scotland) Bill. Our paper suggests that we adopt level 1 scrutiny, which will involve seeking written evidence from the Scottish Police Services Authority, the Association of Chief Police Officers in Scotland, the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service, the Scottish Court Service and the Scottish Prison Service and forwarding their responses to the lead committee. Do members agree with that approach?
As previously agreed, we now move into private session to discuss draft reports on our inquiry into methods of funding capital investment projects and on the financial memorandum to the Disabled Persons' Parking Places (Scotland) Bill.
Meeting continued in private until 16:00.
