Interests

The Deputy Convener (Ash Denham)

Good morning and welcome to the second meeting in 2018 of the Health and Sport Committee. I invite everyone in the room to switch their mobile phones to silent so as not to interfere with proceedings. We have received apologies from Jenny Gilruth and Brian Whittle.

We have two new members on the committee, so the first item is a declaration of interests, in accordance with section 3 of the code of conduct. I invite Lewis Macdonald and David Stewart to declare any interests that are relevant to the remit of the committee.

I draw members’ attention to my role as chair of Inverness Caledonian Thistle Trust, the largest shareholder in Inverness Caledonian Thistle Football Club. The role is unpaid.

I have no relevant interests to declare.

I thank both new members and welcome them to the committee. I hope that you will enjoy it as much as we all do.
