Chamber and committees

Meeting date: Tuesday, February 15, 2000

Disability Issues

The final item on the agenda is the appointment of a reporter on disability issues, which is necessary because Michael Matheson has changed committees. Has interest been shown?

Martin Verity:

I have had two responses. Marilyn Livingstone—who sends her apologies today—has said that she would be interested and Jamie McGrigor is willing if no other member is able to take the responsibility on.

I must apologise—I was supposed to indicate Irene McGugan's interest to Martin and did not do so.

As Michael Matheson is a member of the SNP it would be appropriate for Irene to be the reporter. I prefer that the reporters are not all from one party. Is that agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

Meeting closed at 12:55.
