Interests

The Convener (Bruce Crawford)

Good morning everyone, and welcome to the 20th meeting in 2015 of the Devolution (Further Powers) Committee.

Before we come to item 1, I welcome Malcolm Chisholm MSP to our meeting. As of 5 pm last night, Malcolm is a new member of our committee—he has taken over from Lewis Macdonald. I am sure that all members would like to thank Lewis for his contribution during his time on the committee. We warmly welcome Malcolm to the committee and look forward to working with him. Do you have any relevant interests to declare?

They are probably not relevant to this committee, but I usually declare my union memberships—I am a member of the Educational Institute of Scotland and Unison.
