Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning and welcome to the ninth meeting in 2014 of the Rural Affairs, Climate Change and Environment Committee. I remind everyone to switch off their mobile phones et cetera, as they can affect the sound system.

Agenda item 1 is a decision to take business in private. Does the committee agree to take in private item 3, which is consideration of evidence on the common agricultural policy and the Scotland rural development programme, and item 4, which is consideration of a draft response to the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee for its inquiry into the legislation process?

Members indicated agreement.

Does the committee also agree to take consideration of our work programme in private at our next meeting?

Members indicated agreement.

That is excellent.
