Scottish Parliament Education, Culture and Sport Committee Tuesday 24 September 2002 (Afternoon)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 14:15]

Good afternoon. I welcome everyone to today's meeting of the Education, Culture and Sport Committee in Glasgow. I remind everyone to turn off their mobile phones and pagers.

On behalf of the committee and the Parliament, I express sincere thanks to Glasgow City Council for arranging the room and for helping us with this evening's witnesses from the wider parent community. We will have a full discussion this evening and the committee is most anxious to see scrutiny of the Protection of Children (Scotland) Bill.
