I welcome members to the 27th meeting in 2014 of the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee. I ask everyone to make sure that they have turned off their mobile phones.
The first agenda item is to take decisions on taking business in private. It is proposed that we take items 9 and 11 in private. Item 9 will be further consideration of the oral evidence on the Community Empowerment (Scotland) Bill that we will hear today. It is also suggested that we take future stage 1 consideration of the bill in private. Item 11 is consideration of a draft report on instruments that were considered by the committee in 2013-14. Does the committee agree to take items 9 and 11 in private?
Members indicated agreement.
Does the committee also agree to take in private further stage 1 consideration of the Community Empowerment (Scotland) Bill?
Members indicated agreement.
Members should also note that, in line with a previous decision of the committee, item 10 will also be held in private.
