I reconvene the public session. Agenda item 3 is consideration of a legislative consent motion on the question of amendments to the Deep Sea Mining (Temporary Provisions) Act 1981. We have a paper before us from the clerks that gives the background to this matter, which appears to be fairly non-controversial. If members have no comments, are they content that we recommend that the Parliament approve the draft motion in the legislative consent memorandum, which is in annex A of the briefing paper?
Members indicated agreement.
Thank you. Are members happy to delegate to the convener and the clerk the production of a short factual report detailing the committee’s considerations, such as they were, and to agree to the report’s publication?
Members indicated agreement.
Thank you. We now move into private session.
12:33 Meeting continued in private until 12:35.
