Items in Private

Good morning and welcome to the 13th meeting of the Audit Committee in 2006. I am pleased to welcome the Auditor General for Scotland and his team, committee members, members of the public and the media. I am also pleased to welcome Stewart Stevenson, who is attending to listen to consideration of agenda item 3 and possibly take part in it. We have received no apologies.

Agenda item 1 is for the committee to agree to take in private agenda items 9, 10 and 11. Item 9 is consideration of our approach to the Auditor General's report on the relocation of Scottish Executive departments and his 2005-06 audit of the Scottish Prison Service. Item 10 is consideration of the evidence taken on the teaching profession at a previous committee meeting. Item 11 is consideration of a draft report on our inquiry into the Audit Scotland report on the national health service consultant contract. Do members agree to take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.
