The last item on the agenda is correspondence. Are there any points that members wish to raise?
Have we responded to Children in Scotland?
No. That correspondence came in since our last meeting.
Input from that organisation would be welcome.
Yes. Does the committee want to hear evidence from Children in Scotland? If so, that would put back when we are able to consider a synopsis of the evidence.
It may be willing to provide a written submission.
We can write to ask if it wants to submit written evidence.
Are there any other points?
I notice that we have been invited to meet the Educational Institute of Scotland's equal opportunities committee when Parliament is meeting. Is it proposing to come here?
Not as far as I know. Everyone has received a letter from it. We could write to ask whether it is possible to meet it on a different date, or whether it would be able to come to Edinburgh.
That committee meets in Edinburgh, but I do not know whether it would come to Parliament. If so, some members could be given permission to meet it.
Shall I write to it on behalf of the committee?
Yes.
Are there any other points on correspondence? If anyone wants a copy of correspondence that has not been sent to everyone they should contact Martin Verity or Rodger Evans.
Meeting closed at 12:15.
