Scottish Parliament Justice and Home Affairs Committee Tuesday 31 October 2000 (Morning)
[The Convener opened the meeting at 09:31]
I open the meeting by apologising for the heating, or lack of it, in the chamber. I am not sure what the problem is, but it has been reported to the appropriate authorities. I also ask members to turn off their mobile phones.
Members will know that a visit to the courts in Glasgow is being arranged for Monday 27 November. The names down for the visit are Pauline McNeill, Maureen Macmillan and Michael Matheson. Names must be provided by 5 o'clock this afternoon at the latest to allow travel to be authorised. If anyone else is interested in the visit, which is organised by the Glasgow Bar Association, please give your name to a clerk by teatime.
Does the committee agree to follow its normal procedure and discuss the reports that we hope to have on stage 2 of the budget process and on the Leasehold Casualties (Scotland) Bill in private at our next meeting?
Members indicated agreement.
