Welcome to the 21st meeting in 2025 of the Rural Affairs and Islands Committee. I ask everybody to ensure that their electronic devices are switched to silent. We have received apologies from Rhoda Grant.
Before we move to our first item of business, I note that members might have seen the Parliamentary Bureau motion lodged yesterday relating to Elena Whitham leaving the committee. I take this opportunity to thank Elena for her much-valued work on the committee in the time she has been here and to wish her luck on the committees that she will take her place on.
Our first agenda item is to agree to take item 4 at today’s meeting in private and to agree to consider our stage 1 report on the Natural Environment (Scotland) Bill in private at item 5 and in future meetings.
Members indicated agreement.
