Interests

The Convener (Nigel Don)

I welcome members to the 34th meeting in 2014 of the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee. As always, I ask members to switch off mobile phones, please.

Agenda item 1 is a declaration of interests. I welcome John Mason to the committee and, in accordance with section 3 of the code of conduct, invite him to declare any relevant interests.

I am very happy to join the committee. I do not think that there is anything in particular that I need to mention at this stage.

The Convener

Thank you.

I am sure that members would want to join me in noting Mike MacKenzie’s elevation to higher things, whichever committee he has gone to—I am sorry but I cannot remember which it is. I am sure that we have enjoyed our time with him on the committee. He certainly made a contribution. In particular, I recognise his very interesting contribution to the debate last week on the Legal Writings (Counterparts and Delivery) (Scotland) Bill, which—I think it would be fair to say—we all enjoyed.
