Scottish Parliament Enterprise and Lifelong Learning Committee Wednesday 4 September 2002 (Morning)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 10:04]

The Convener (Alex Neil):

Welcome to the 22nd meeting in 2002 of the Enterprise and Lifelong Learning Committee. I have received apologies for absence from David Mundell and Adam Ingram. Gordon Jackson and Brian Fitzpatrick have informed me that they are going to be late. I welcome David Davidson as the substitute member for David Mundell.

Annabel Goldie is trapped on a train, but she is on her way.

Thank you.

Because I have to speak to amendments for the Land Reform (Scotland) Bill, I will have to leave the committee early.

Okay. I shall hand over to you now, Rhona, for item 1, which is a report back on the case studies. Because Rhona has to leave early for another appointment, I invite her to kick off with her report on the golf and business tourism case study.
