Decisions on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Maureen Watt):

Good morning and welcome to the committee's 13th meeting of the year. I remind everyone to turn off mobile phones and pagers, please.

The first item of business is consideration of whether to take in private agenda items 5 and 6. Item 5 is consideration of the committee's future work programme specifically in relation to European issues, and item 6 is consideration of a discussion paper on the pig industry. Do members agree to take in private items 5 and 6?

Members indicated agreement.

Can we also agree to take in private consideration of future draft reports on our inquiry into the pig industry?

Members indicated agreement.
