Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Bob Doris)

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the second meeting of the Local Government and Communities Committee in 2017. I remind everyone to turn off their mobile phones. Committee papers are provided in digital format, so members may been seen using tablet devices during the meeting. We have received no apologies.

Agenda item 1 is to make a decision on taking business in private. Do members agree to take in private agenda item 4, which is consideration of a draft report on payments to returning officers, and agenda item 7, which is on draft letters that relate to the committee’s European Union scrutiny?

Members indicated agreement.
