Items in Private
I commence the Audit Committee's first meeting of 2006, to which I welcome the Auditor General for Scotland and his team from Audit Scotland, the public, the media, committee members and clerking staff. I wish everyone a good new year. I ask everyone present to ensure that all pagers and mobile phones are switched off, so that they do not interfere with the public address system.
We have no apologies and everyone is present, so we will move on to agenda item 1, which is to seek the committee's agreement to take in private items 5 and 6. Item 5 is consideration of the evidence under item 4 on the "Overview of the water industry in Scotland" and item 6 is consideration of our approach to the report "Scottish Executive: The NorthLink ferry services contract", which is item 2. Does the committee agree to take items 5 and 6 in private?
Members indicated agreement.
