Convener

Secondly, the committee must choose a convener. Under the rules on the allocation of conveners that have been laid down by the Parliament, the convener of the committee will come from the Scottish National Party group. I invite nominations.

I nominate Bruce Crawford for the post of convener.

As no other names have been put forward, I declare that Bruce Crawford has been chosen as the committee's convener. That ends my brief moment of glory.

Bruce Crawford was chosen as convener.

May I get a cup of coffee, convener?

The meeting will close very shortly.

I thank members very much for accepting my nomination as convener. Although the committee will have a short life, it will be important.
