Good morning and welcome to the 21st meeting of the Rural Economy and Connectivity Committee in 2019. I remind everyone to ensure that their mobile phones are switched to silent.

Agenda item 1 is the sift of two EU exit Scottish statutory instruments under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018. The Scottish Government has allocated the negative procedure to both instruments. Is the committee content with the parliamentary procedure allocated by the Scottish Government?

Members indicated agreement.
