Finance Committee, 26 Jun 2001

Meeting date: Tuesday, June 26, 2001


Contents


Items in Private.

The Convener (Mike Watson):

I formally open the last meeting of the Finance Committee in this term—or is it session? I am never sure which word to use, but members know what I mean. As usual, I ask members to switch off their mobile phones and to switch their pagers to buzz.

No apologies have been submitted, but we know that our Aberdonian members have been delayed—courtesy of Great North Eastern Railway, I suspect. However, they will arrive.

I invite members to agree to discuss items 4, 5 and 6 in private.

Members indicated agreement.
