Scottish Parliament Enterprise and Lifelong Learning Committee Tuesday 8 October 2002 (Morning)

[The Deputy Convener opened the meeting at 10:04]

Good morning everyone and welcome to the 27th meeting in 2002 of the Enterprise and Lifelong Learning Committee. I am Annabel Goldie and I am the deputy convener of the committee.

I extend a welcome to Michael Smyth, who is sitting on my left. He is the committee's adviser on the budget process.

I have apologies to intimate. Our convener, Alex Neil, and Gordon Jackson are in America on a case study in relation to the tourism inquiry. I believe that Tavish Scott and Rhona Brankin are away on a parliamentary visit to Canada. They are visiting parts furth of Scotland.
