Items in Private
I welcome committee members and the Auditor General for Scotland and his team to today's meeting of the Audit Committee. [Interruption.] My mobile phone going off is a timely reminder that we should all switch off our mobile phones and pagers, although my phone was just telling me that its battery is low. We have no apologies for absence, but we have apologies from Eleanor Scott, who will arrive later.
Under agenda item 1, the committee is asked to consider taking in private later in the meeting items 4 to 8. Item 4 is consideration of our approach to the Auditor General for Scotland's reports that are listed on the agenda; item 5 is consideration of our work programme; item 6 is consideration of the arrangements for our inquiry into the section 22 report on Inverness College; item 7 is consideration of a draft report on the "How Government Works" series; and item 8 is consideration of a submission to the Finance Committee's inquiry into accountability and governance. Does the committee agree to take in private items 4 to 8?
Members indicated agreement.
