Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Michael McMahon)

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Welfare Reform Committee’s 13th meeting in 2012. I ask everyone to ensure that their mobile phones, BlackBerrys and other pieces of technical equipment are switched off. We have apologies from Jamie Hepburn, who phoned this morning to say that he is ill.

Before we deal with our main agenda items, we have a short item of administrative business. Under agenda item 1, does the committee agree to consider in private item 5, which is discussion of a future visit to an Atos assessment centre?

Members indicated agreement.
