Decision on Taking Business in Private

Welcome to the 16th meeting in 2009 of the Economy, Energy and Tourism Committee. I give the traditional reminder that everyone should turn off their mobile phones. Please do not leave them on silent, as that can still interfere with the sound system.

We have apologies from Stuart McMillan, so I welcome Nigel Don, who appears on this occasion in his role as substitute member rather than just as an additional member.

Under agenda item 1, I ask the committee to agree to take item 4, and any future consideration of our draft energy inquiry report, in private. It is normal practice for committees to deal with such reports in private, so as to allow full discussion of the matters. Do we agree to do so?

Members indicated agreement.
