Scottish Parliament Rural Affairs Committee Tuesday 28 March 2000 (Afternoon)

[The Convener opened the meeting at 14:06]

It is my pleasure to welcome you all, ladies and gentlemen. I apologise to witnesses for the delay in starting. The committee wanted to discuss another item in advance of the public part of the meeting and our discussion overran slightly. I am sorry that you had to wait.

I have received no apologies, so we shall move straight to item 1.
