European Union Reporter

We can dispose of agenda item 3 quite quickly. We have to discuss the appointment of a committee member to serve as its European Union reporter. Mary Fee was our EU reporter and she has left the committee, so the role is now vacant.

The role of the EU reporter is to act as champion for EU matters within the committee. Further details are provided in the papers that we have all received. I invite nominations for the EU reporter for the committee.

I nominate Richard Lyle.

Do you accept, Richard?

I accept.

As there are no other nominations, does the committee agree that Richard Lyle should be appointed?

Members indicated agreement.

I thank committee members for that honour.

Members will remember that, at the start of today’s meeting, we agreed to discuss our work programme under agenda item 4 in private.

11:56 Meeting continued in private until 12:43.
