Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Clare Adamson)

Good morning, and welcome to the 15th meeting in 2018 of the Social Security Committee. I remind everyone to turn their mobile phones and other devices to silent so that they do not disrupt the meeting or the broadcasting. [Interruption.] A phone rang. Good timing.

Agenda item 1 is to decide whether to take items 3, 4 and 5 in private. Under agenda item 3, the committee will consider the evidence on passported benefits heard earlier in the meeting, and agenda items 4 and 5 involve consideration of private papers from the clerk. Does the committee agree to take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.
