Item 2 is a decision on taking business in private. The committee is to consider taking an item on post-legislative scrutiny in private at a future meeting. Do any members have a view?
On this occasion, any discussion of the subject will not affect the interests of individuals, and I do not foresee that the issue will be particularly party driven. On this occasion, therefore, it would give greater credibility to items that we do take in private if we take this one in public and allow people who watch the committee’s activities to see our discussions on this subject, which will be pretty matter of fact.
The committee is always minded to take things in public when it can. Unless I hear any dissenting voices, it seems to be agreed that we should take the item in public at the future meeting. Are members agreed?
Members indicated agreement.
The committee will now move into private session to consider items 3 and 4.
