Scottish Parliament Rural Development Committee Tuesday 16 January 2001 (Afternoon)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 14:03]

The Convener (Alex Johnstone):

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the chamber. We are meeting here simply because of scheduling arrangements, but given that we are not taking evidence today, it is a little awkward to find ourselves in this strange position. However, I will try to avoid getting a crick in my neck and we will continue.
