Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Kevin Stewart)

Good morning and welcome to the Local Government and Regeneration Committee’s fifth meeting in 2016. Everyone present is asked to switch off mobile phones and other electronic equipment, as they affect the broadcasting system. Some committee members will consult tablets as we provide meeting papers in digital format. Apologies have been received from John Wilson and Cara Hilton.

Agenda item 1 is consideration of whether to take in private item 7, which is a discussion about the evidence taken as part of our inquiry on the Scottish Public Services Ombudsman, and item 8, which is a discussion about the evidence taken as part of our scrutiny of the draft budget 2016-17. Do members agree to take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.
