[The Convener opened the meeting in private at 09:32]
Meeting continued in public.
I open the public session of the third meeting this year of the Transport and the Environment Committee. I have not received any apologies for today's meeting, at which we shall continue to take evidence for our water inquiry. As members know, our next meeting will take place on Monday in Aberdeen, and we will take further evidence from West of Scotland Water, the North of Scotland Water Authority and a number of local interest groups. Are members agreed to have a private session before that meeting to discuss lines of questioning, as is normal practice?
After discussion with members, I can also confirm that we will seek a meeting in Aberdeen with the north-east Scotland economic development partnership to discuss issues related to the road structure in Aberdeen.
It may well be that we will want to hear from the partnership about the roads before we have the private session on the water inquiry. We should have that flexibility.
We will order everything in the right sequence.
