Reporters

The Convener:

Item 4 is the gender report. Due to Elaine Smith's illness, we did not proceed with the report at our previous meeting. Elaine is still unable to attend, but has asked that the paper go forward at this meeting. Are there any comments on the paper?

Mr McMahon:

What would Elaine Smith like to happen? Has she indicated what she believes requires to be done, now that the report has been produced? It is an excellent report and she deserves credit for bringing the information to the committee, but does she have a specific request as to what we do with it?

The Convener:

As far as I know, she wants us to agree the recommendations, which are in paragraph 54 of the paper. I do not think that there is anything else. There is also another paper, which is a note of the meeting that the gender reporter held with Scottish Women Against Pornography. Do members agree to the recommendations?

Members indicated agreement.

Meeting continued in private until 11:44.
