Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Joe FitzPatrick)

I welcome everyone to the third meeting of the Local Government and Regeneration Committee and give the usual reminder to switch off mobile phones and electronic devices. As well as preventing any interference with the broadcasting equipment, doing so will save you the kind of embarrassment I experienced at our business planning meeting last week. We have received apologies from Ruth Davidson, who will not be able to join us.

The first item on the agenda is to decide whether to take item 4 in private. I suggest that we do so. Are members agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
