Items in Private
I open the first meeting in 2004 of the Audit Committee in the second session of the Scottish Parliament. I ask members and guests to ensure that their mobile phones and pagers are switched off. I welcome all members of the committee, clerks, representatives of Audit Scotland and members of the public and the press and I wish everyone a guid new year. We have received no apologies—we have full attendance.
Agenda item 1 is to seek the agreement of the committee to discuss in private agenda items 5, 6 and 7. Item 5 will be discussion of our evidence-taking session on Scottish Enterprise at the forthcoming meeting on 20 January. Item 6 will be discussion of our draft report on the inquiry on the Auditor General for Scotland's report "Supporting prescribing in general practice—a progress report". Item 7 will be consideration of our approach on the Auditor General for Scotland's report, "Overview of the National Health Service in Scotland 2002/03".
Unless members want to raise any questions, I suggest that we take items 5, 6 and 7 in private. Are we agreed?
Members indicated agreement.
