Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Audrey Nicoll)

Good morning, and welcome to the first joint meeting in 2024 of the Criminal Justice Committee, the Health, Social Care and Sport Committee and the Social Justice and Social Security Committee, to consider the progress made in implementing the recommendations of the Scottish Drug Deaths Taskforce. We have apologies from Gillian Mackay MSP and Sue Webber MSP.

Our first item of business is to decide whether to take item 3, which is to review today’s evidence, in private. Are we agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
