Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning. I will start the meeting, as I know that the minister is running to a tight schedule. I welcome everyone to the second meeting in 2009 of the Public Audit Committee.

I ask everyone to ensure that mobile phones and other electronic devices are switched off. Apologies have been received from Cathie Craigie. James Kelly is substituting for her. I welcome the staff of Audit Scotland, the minister and his team, and members of the public.

Under the first item on the agenda, I ask members to agree to take items 4, 5 and 6 in private.

Members indicated agreement.
