Convener
The next item is for the committee to choose a convener. The Parliament has decided that members of the Scottish National Party are eligible to be chosen as convener. I invite a nomination.
I nominate Bob Doris.
Bob Doris was chosen as convener.
I would not be doing my job properly if I did not thank George Adam for nominating me, and the committee for agreeing to my becoming convener, which I look forward to. I pay tribute to the work of Clare Adamson, who has done a sterling job with the important legislation that has gone through the committee over the previous few months.
I congratulate Ben Macpherson, who has been elevated to ministerial level, and Ruth Maguire, who has moved on to become a committee convener. I record my thanks to the three outgoing members who have, along with the rest of the members, laid good groundwork for where we are. I am delighted to take over as committee convener.
