Decisions on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Martin Whitfield)

Good morning, and welcome to the ninth meeting in 2021 of the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee. I remind members who are joining us on BlueJeans to put an R in the chat function if they want to speak.

Agenda item 1 is a decision on taking business in private. Does the committee agree to take in private item 4, which is consideration of its approach to standing orders rule changes, and item 5, which is consideration of the committee’s work programme?

Members indicated agreement.

Agenda item 2 is another decision on taking business in private. Does the committee agree that its consideration of complaint reports from the Commissioner for Ethical Standards in Public Life in Scotland will be taken in private at future meetings?

Members indicated agreement.
