Interests

Good morning. Welcome to the 18th meeting in 2010 of the Local Government and Communities Committee. As I usually do at this point, I ask members and the public to turn off all mobile phones and BlackBerrys.

This morning, we have received apologies from Jim Tolson. I welcome Alison McInnes, who has joined the committee to represent the Liberal Democrats, and ask her to declare any interests.

Good morning. I point members to my entry in the register of members’ interests. I have no direct interests to declare.
