Scottish Parliament Enterprise and Lifelong Learning Committee Wednesday 15 September 1999 (Morning)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 10:00]

Good morning, everyone. I want to bring the meeting to order and commence the proceedings of the Enterprise and Lifelong Learning Committee. All members of the committee, the public and the press must ensure that their mobile phones are switched off and that their pagers are switched to vibrate—a rule that I had better make sure I obey too.

The agenda for today's meeting has been circulated. We are joined by Helen Eadie, who although not a member of the committee has expressed an interest in our work. She is very welcome.

Convener, David Davidson is hoping to join us later.

Yes, David Davidson has expressed a similar interest and will be welcome if and when he is able to join us.
