Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Stewart Stevenson)

I welcome members to the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee’s 20th meeting in 2015. I remind everyone to switch off mobile phones because they can affect the broadcasting system. We have received apologies from Dave Thompson.

Agenda item 1 is a decision on whether to take in private items 3 and 4. Item 3 is consideration of changes to rules on cross-party groups and item 4 is consideration of correspondence that has been received from the Public Petitions Committee. Do members agree to take those items in private?

Members indicated agreement.
