Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Stewart Maxwell)

Good morning. I welcome everybody to the ninth meeting in 2015 of the Education and Culture Committee.

We have apologies from Liam McArthur and Chic Brodie. I welcome James Dornan, who is here as a substitute for Chic Brodie.

Our first item is to consider whether to take item 3 in private. Do members agree to do so?

Members indicated agreement.

I should have said, as I always do, that we should ensure that electronic devices, including phones, are switched off so that they do not interfere with the sound system.
