Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning, everyone. I welcome our witnesses and members of the public to the sixth meeting in 2012 of the Welfare Reform Committee and remind everyone to turn off all electronic equipment.

Apologies have been received from Drew Smith, who is attending the Health and Sport Committee. Jackie Baillie is in attendance as his substitute.

Agenda item 1 is to decide whether to consider in private at future meetings a draft report on the Welfare Reform (Further Provision) (Scotland) Bill. Do members agree to do so?

Members indicated agreement.
