The Convener (Finlay Carson)

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the 13th meeting in 2023 of the Rural Affairs and Islands Committee. I remind members who are using electronic devices to turn them to silent, please.

I welcome our new member, Rhoda Grant, who replaces Mercedes Villalba. I invite Rhoda to declare any relevant interests.

I do not think that I have any relevant interests to declare, but I refer members to my entry in the register of members’ interests.

Thank you.
