Scottish Parliament Audit Committee Monday 5 February 2001 (Afternoon)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 14:02]

I open the meeting and welcome members of the public. I understand that our colleague, Janis Hughes, will join us today. Although Janis is not a member of the committee, she has an interest in the subject and will be welcome.

I also welcome officials from Audit Scotland to the first meeting of the Audit Committee in Glasgow. As a Glaswegian, I hope that it will not be our last meeting in Glasgow. I remind everybody that all mobile phones and pagers should be switched off.

We have received apologies from Lloyd Quinan. Are there other apologies?

I have been asked to pass on apologies from Scott Barrie.

That is understandable, given the weather conditions.

I seek the approval of members to take agenda items 2, 4, 5 and 6 in private. Are we agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

We now move into private session.

Meeting continued in private.

Meeting continued in public.
