Decisions on Taking Business in Private

Good morning everyone, and welcome to the fourth meeting of the Equal Opportunities Committee in 2008. I remind all present, including members, that mobile phones and BlackBerrys should be switched off completely, because they interfere with the sound system even when they are switched to silent.

We have only one apology this morning, which is from Michael McMahon.

Agenda item 1 is a decision on taking business in private. Do members agree to discuss our work programme in private under item 5?

Members indicated agreement.

Agenda item 2 is a decision on whether to consider the paper by the gender reporter in private at our next meeting. Do members agree to take that paper in private at the next meeting?

Members indicated agreement.
