Scottish Parliament Thursday 24 February 2000

[The Presiding Officer opened the meeting at 09:30]

Good morning. I feel like delivering a sermon on poor attendance at church.

Wait until you hear what we have to say. [Laughter.]

The Presiding Officer:

Before we begin this morning's debate, I must inform members that there will be a statement at 3.30 this afternoon on section 2A, which will curtail the debate on the code of conduct. That message will be transmitted on the screens throughout the offices.
