Scottish Parliament European Committee Tuesday 13 February 2001 (Afternoon)
[The Convener opened the meeting at 14:06]
Welcome to the European Committee's third meeting in 2001. I have apologies from Nora Radcliffe, who cannot attend. Euan Robson, however, is with us. Although he is a member of another committee, he has an interest in some of the issues that we will consider.
We will hear from a number of witnesses this afternoon. Before we do, I suggest that the running order of witnesses be changed slightly to accommodate those from Shetland, who have been delayed. I propose that we hear Paul Brady and Robin Weatherston from the Scottish Executive first.
First, I ask that the committee agrees to take item 5 in private. Are we agreed?
Members indicated agreement.
