Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Finlay Carson)

Good morning, and welcome to the second meeting in 2025 of the Rural Affairs and Islands Committee. This morning, we have received apologies from Elena Whitham. Before we begin, I ask members who are taking part to ensure that all electronic devices are switched to silent.

Agenda item 1 is consideration of whether to take item 5 in private. Do members agree to do so?

Members indicated agreement.
