Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Duncan McNeil)

Good morning and welcome to the 16th meeting in 2013 of the Health and Sport Committee. As usual, I remind those present to switch off all mobile phones and BlackBerrys, as they can often interfere with the sound system. People around the table and in the public gallery may also notice that some members are using iPads instead of hard copies of committee papers.

Agenda item 1 is a decision to take item 5, which is a work programme discussion, in private. Such discussions are normally taken in private. Does the committee agree to take item 5 in private?

Members indicated agreement.
