Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Edward Mountain)

Good morning, and welcome to the 38th meeting in 2025 of the Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee. Our first item of business is a decision on taking items 2, 3 and 5 in private. Item 2 is consideration of the evidence that we heard last week on the Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction Bill legislative consent memorandum, item 3 is consideration of the committee’s work programme and item 5 is consideration of the evidence that we will have heard on the draft climate change plan. Do we agree to take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.

The Convener

We will move into private for about half an hour before we hear from the first panel of witnesses.
