Interests
Good morning everyone, and welcome to the first meeting in 2012 of the Scottish Parliament’s Finance Committee. I remind everyone to turn off their mobile phones, BlackBerrys and pagers, please.
I welcome Michael McMahon MSP and Elaine Murray MSP as new members of the committee and thank Margaret McCulloch and John Pentland, who were their predecessors, for their work and efforts on the committee. I wish them all the best on their new committees.
Agenda item 1 is to invite Michael McMahon and Elaine Murray to declare any interests that are relevant to the committee’s remit.
I have nothing to declare, convener.
Probably the only interest that is relevant to the committee is my membership of Unite the Union, which sponsored me in my election campaign.
Thank you.
