Items in Private
Good afternoon everyone and welcome to the 18th and final meeting this year of the European and External Relations Committee.
I have received apologies from Charlie Gordon, who has to attend the Edinburgh Airport Rail Link Bill Committee. I have also received apologies from Dennis Canavan and Gordon Jackson. John Home Robertson needs to attend the first 20 minutes or so of the Justice 2 Committee, but he will join us later. Irene Oldfather, unfortunately, is running late. That is why we are a very select small band this afternoon.
Item 1 is to consider whether to take items 7 and 8 in private. Under item 7, we will discuss which issues that have arisen during our inquiry into the strategy for growth and jobs should be included in our report. Under item 8, we will consider a paper from the clerk on our work programme. Are members agreed to take items 7 and 8 in private?
Members indicated agreement.
