Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Bob Doris)

Good morning, and welcome to the 17th meeting in 2017 of the Local Government and Communities Committee. I remind everyone present to turn off mobile phones. As meeting papers are provided in digital format, members may use tablets during the meeting. We have received one apology this morning: Kenneth Gibson MSP will not be with us.

Agenda item 1 is a decision on taking business in private. I invite the committee to agree to take in private item 5, which is consideration of a draft letter to local authorities regarding their strategic housing investment plans. Do we agree to take the item in private?

Members indicated agreement.
