Interests

The Convener (Finlay Carson)

Good morning, and welcome to the 18th meeting in 2024 of the Rural Affairs and Islands Committee. I ask everyone to ensure that they have turned their mobile devices to silent.

The first item on the agenda is to invite Colin Beattie, who is our newest committee member, to declare any relevant interests. In welcoming Colin, we thank Alasdair Allan, whom he is replacing and who sat on the committee from the start of this parliamentary session.

Thank you, convener. I am delighted to be on the committee. I have no relevant interests to declare.
