Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Deputy Convener (Alex Rowley)

Good morning, and welcome to the ninth meeting in 2019 of the Local Government and Communities Committee. I remind everybody to switch off their mobile phones.

I apologise on behalf of the convener, James Dornan, who is, I am told, trapped on a train outside Haymarket. That situation is probably not a surprise to most train users.

The first item on our agenda is to decide whether to take agenda item 6 in private. Do members agree to do so?

Members indicated agreement.
