Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Clare Adamson)

Good morning, and a warm welcome to the 33rd meeting in 2025 of the Constitution, Europe, External Affairs and Culture Committee. We have received apologies from Stephen Kerr. We welcome Brian Whittle, who is not a substitute but is joining us for the stage 2 proceedings.

The first agenda item is a decision on taking business in private. Does the committee agree to take in private at a future meeting our consideration of the stage 1 report on the Desecration of War Memorials (Scotland) Bill?

Members indicated agreement.
