Interests

The Convener:

We now return to item 1. I formally welcome Karen Gillon to the committee. Karen and I have shared committees before, so we are well known to each other—she may be less well known to some of the new members. Karen is likely to play a robust part in the proceedings of the committee, and that will be welcome. I invite her to declare any interests that are relevant to the remit of the committee in accordance with section 3 of the code of conduct.

I draw members' attention to my entry in the register of members' interests. I am a member of Unison, which may from time to time become relevant to the committee's deliberations.
