Interests

The Convener (Clare Adamson)

Good morning and welcome to the 23rd meeting of the Education and Skills Committee in 2019. I remind everyone to turn their mobile phones and other devices to silent for the duration of the meeting.

Before we move to item 1, I record the committee’s thanks to Tavish Scott for his service, not only to this committee but to the Parliament. I wish him well in his future endeavours.

Item 1 is a declaration of interests from our new member, Gail Ross, whom we welcome to the committee today.

Thank you, convener. As it says in my entry in the register of members’ interests, I am on the board of North Highland College.

Thank you.

We also thank Gordon MacDonald, who was a committee member and has moved on to do other committee work in Parliament.
