Equal Opportunities Committee

Meeting date: Thursday, September 5, 2013

Convener

Item 2 is the choice of convener. The Parliament has agreed that only Scottish Labour Party members are eligible for nomination as convener of the Equal Opportunities Committee. I invite eligible nominations.

I nominate Margaret McCulloch.

I have received one nomination—unless Alex Johnstone is about to stage a rebellion.

Margaret McCulloch was chosen as convener.

I congratulate Margaret McCulloch and suspend the meeting briefly so that we can swap seats.
