We have received apologies from Jackie Baillie. I invite any members to declare whether they are present as committee substitutes.
I am.
This is Marilyn Livingstone's first meeting in her capacity as a committee substitute, so I invite her to declare any interests from her entry in the register of members' interests that are relevant to the remit of the committee.
I should perhaps declare that I am a member of the Educational Institute of Scotland and am currently on a career break from Fife College of Further and Higher Education.
