Good morning and welcome to the 17th meeting of the Welfare Reform Committee in 2015. I remind members to ensure that their mobile phones and other electronic devices are switched to airplane mode or to silent, as they can interfere with the broadcasting system.
We have received apologies from our convener Hugh Henry, and from John Lamont and Neil Findlay. We welcome John Lamont’s substitute, Alex Johnstone, and Neil Findlay’s substitute, Neil Bibby, to the committee.
The first agenda item, in a change to the published agenda, is a declaration of interests. I invite Neil Bibby to declare any interests that are relevant to the committee’s remit.
I have no relevant interests to declare.
