Interests

I open the fifth meeting of the Communities Committee in 2006 and remind all those present that mobile phones should be turned off.

I have received a number of apologies. Tricia Marwick is unable to attend today and her substitute, Sandra White, will appear at the committee slightly late—I understand that she has to attend the Public Petitions Committee first. Scott Barrie is also unable to attend. I welcome Christine May to the committee as his substitute and ask her to declare any interests.

For the purposes of the matters that are under discussion today, I declare that I am a trustee of the Fife Historic Buildings Trust.

I understand that John Home Robertson also wants to make a declaration.

As you might be aware, convener, I am a member of the Paxton Trust, which looks after a certain historic building.

The final apologies of the day come from Euan Robson, who is also unable to attend.
