Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Deputy Convener (Bob Doris)

Good morning and welcome to the 10th meeting in 2015 of the Health and Sport Committee. I have apologies from our convener, Duncan McNeil, and Mike MacKenzie. I welcome the Scottish National Party’s substitute, Graeme Dey, who has become a familiar face at the committee.

I ask everyone in the room to switch off mobile phones as they can interfere with the sound system. You will see some of us using tablet devices instead of hard copies of our papers.

The first item on the agenda is a decision on taking business in private. Item 4 is to consider our approach to the Carers (Scotland) Bill. We normally discuss such matters in private. Does the committee agree to take that item in private?

Members indicated agreement.
