Items in Private
I welcome everyone to the ninth meeting in 2005 of the Scottish Parliament Audit Committee. I am pleased to see members of Audit Scotland as well as committee members. We have apologies from George Lyon and from Andrew Welsh, who is at the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body meeting. Susan Deacon and Mary Mulligan have also given apologies because, depending on the length of the meeting, they might have to leave early to attend to constituency business. I remind everyone to switch off mobile phones and pagers
Item 1 is to seek the committee's agreement to consider a number of agenda items in private. Item 4 is to enable the committee to consider its approach to the report of the Auditor General entitled "A review of bowel cancer services: An early diagnosis". Item 5 is to enable the committee to consider a draft report on our inquiry into the section 22 report by the Auditor General for Scotland entitled "The 2003/04 Audit of the National Galleries of Scotland". Item 6 is to enable the committee to consider a further draft report on the inquiry into the report by the Auditor General entitled "Overview of the financial performance of the NHS in Scotland 2003/04". Item 7 is to enable the committee to consider a draft annual report for the committee for 2004-05.
The question is, that we take items 4, 5, 6 and 7 in private. Are we all agreed?
Members indicated agreement.
