Decisions on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Christine Grahame)

I welcome everyone to the Justice Committee’s fifth meeting of 2016. I ask everyone to switch off electronic devices and mobile phones as they interfere with broadcasting, even when they are switched to silent. No apologies have been received.

Under item 1, does the committee agree to consider items 4 and 5 in private? Item 4 is the draft stage 1 report on the Criminal Verdicts (Scotland) Bill, and item 5 is consideration of the committee’s work programme. Are members agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
