Enterprise and Lifelong Learning Committee,

Meeting date: Wednesday, May 31, 2000

Royal Society of Edinburgh

The Convener:

The Royal Society of Edinburgh has invited the committee to meet its representatives to discuss issues of mutual interest. The meeting will take place on 8 June and I hope that a broad cross-section of members will be able to attend. The society has been anxious to secure a meeting for some time. I shall be attending and I hope that other members will do so, too.

I should be interested in meeting members of the society. They have done a lot of useful work on the commercialisation of science, and it will be worth meeting them.

The Convener:

That is very much what they will want to discuss with us. I had not realised until recently that the society receives public funds for its activities from the Scottish Executive enterprise and lifelong learning department.

I ask members who want to attend to notify the clerks after today's meeting.
