Interests

Good morning, and welcome to the 14th meeting in 2020 of the Equalities and Human Rights Committee. We have received apologies from Angela Constance, Mary Fee and Alex Cole-Hamilton.

The committee again pays tribute to all the organisations in the equalities and human rights sector for their continued dedicated service and hard work in what continue to be very difficult and challenging times.

We have a change of committee membership. I thank Maurice Golden for his work and welcome Alexander Stewart to the committee. I invite Alexander to declare any relevant interests.

Good morning, convener. I am delighted to join the committee. I have no relevant interests to declare.
