Good morning, and welcome to the Justice Committee’s first meeting in 2019. We have received apologies from Liam McArthur.
Agenda item 1 is a decision on whether to take in private items 3 and 4 at this meeting and consideration at future meetings of the draft stage 1 reports on the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill and the Management of Offenders (Scotland) Bill. Are we agreed to take that business in private?
Members indicated agreement.
