Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Finlay Carson)

Good morning, and welcome to the first meeting of the Rural Affairs and Islands Committee in 2026. I wish everybody a happy new year.

Before we begin, I remind everyone to switch their electronic devices to silent.

Under our first agenda item, do members agree to review the evidence heard on the draft climate change plan in private today and at future meetings?

Members indicated agreement.
