Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Rob Gibson)

Good morning and welcome to the 11th meeting in 2015 of the Rural Affairs, Climate Change and Environment Committee. I remind everyone that we should all switch off our mobile phones, as they affect the broadcasting system. Committee members may consult their tablets to access committee papers in digital format. We have received apologies from Claudia Beamish.

Agenda item 1 is to decide whether to take two items in private. The first is a committee paper on our proposed meeting in Orkney as part of the Parliament day in Kirkwall in June. Are we agreed that we will take that item in private?

Members indicated agreement.

The second item is a letter to the Scottish Government on the wild fisheries review. Are we agreed that we will take that item in private?

Members indicated agreement.

I also seek the committee’s agreement to consider those items in private at future meetings if need be.

Members indicated agreement.
