Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (James Dornan)

Good morning. I welcome everyone to the second meeting in 2017 of the Education and Skills Committee. I remind everyone to turn off or switch to silent mode their mobile phones and other electronic devices for the duration of the meeting.

The first item of business is to decide whether to take items of business in private. First, is everyone content to take item 4 in private?

Members indicated agreement.

The Convener

At next week’s meeting, we will hear evidence on widening access to higher education. Are members content to take in private at that meeting an item to review that evidence?

Members indicated agreement.
