Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Deputy Convener (John Mason)

Good morning and welcome to the 18th meeting in 2018 of the Economy, Jobs and Fair Work Committee. I remind all members to turn off, or at least turn to silent, any electronic devices so that they do not interfere with the committee’s work.

We are somewhat depleted this morning. We have apologies from Jackie Baillie, Kezia Dugdale, Fulton MacGregor and Andy Wightman. On top of that, as members can see, the convener, Gordon Lindhurst, is not here, although he expects to join us later. I will chair the meeting in the meantime.

Agenda item 1 is a decision on taking business in private. Does the committee agree to take agenda items 4, 5 and 6 in private?

Members indicated agreement.
