Convener

Bill Kidd

Item 2 is the choice of convener. The procedure has been explained in paper 2.

Parliament has agreed that only members of the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party are eligible for nomination as convener of the committee. I understand that Jackson Carlaw is that party’s nominee. I ask Tess White to nominate Jackson Carlaw for the post.

I formally nominate Jackson Carlaw.

Jackson Carlaw was chosen as convener.

I congratulate Jackson Carlaw on his appointment and I now hand over to him.
