Interests

The Convener (Martin Whitfield)

Good morning. I welcome everyone to the 18th meeting in 2024 of the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee. I have received no apologies this morning.

The first agenda item is to welcome two new members to the committee in the form of Ruth Maguire MSP and Joe FitzPatrick MSP and to take declarations of interest. Welcome, Ruth Maguire. Do you have any relevant interests to declare?

Good morning, convener. I have no relevant interests to declare. I am very much looking forward to contributing to the work of the committee.

Excellent. Welcome, Joe FitzPatrick. Do you have any relevant interests to declare?

Morning, convener. I, too, have no relevant interests to declare.

The Convener

Excellent. Thank you very much.

Before we move to our second agenda item, does the committee agree that I should write to former members Jackie Dunbar and Alasdair Allan to thank them for their service on the committee?

Members indicated agreement.
