Deputy Convener

The Convener

The second agenda item is to choose a deputy convener. The Parliament has agreed that only members of the Scottish National Party are eligible for nomination as deputy convener of this committee. I invite—rather pointedly—Joe FitzPatrick to say whether there is anyone that he would like to nominate for the role of deputy convener.

I would be pleased to nominate Ruth Maguire.

Excellent. There is no requirement for a seconder.

Ruth Maguire was chosen as deputy convener.

Excellent. Congratulations, Ruth.
