Decision on Taking Business in Private

Welcome to the eighth meeting in 2013 of the Economy, Energy and Tourism Committee. I welcome back the deputy convener, Dennis Robertson, after his trip to the other side of the world. I offer my congratulations to Alasdair Reid, from the Scottish Parliament information centre, who is back with us having been on paternity leave following the birth of a baby daughter. Congratulations, Alasdair.

I remind all members to turn off their mobile phones and other electronic devices.

We have a busy programme this morning, so we will get straight into it. Under item 1 on the agenda, I ask members to agree to take item 6 in private. Do we agree to do so?

Members indicated agreement.
