[The Convener opened the meeting at 10:30]
Good morning and welcome to the last Standards Committee meeting in 2000.
We have received apologies from Tricia Marwick and Karen Gillon. Members may wish to know that, due to the reorganisation of the committees, Adam Ingram has submitted his resignation from the committee. I wish to record formally our thanks for Adam's work during the time in which he served on the committee.
