I have received no apologies.The first item on the agenda is to decide whether to discuss the following items in private: first, our consideration of the question whether we should pay expenses for the personal travel arrangements of certain witnesses to the aquaculture inquiry; secondly, our consideration of possible visits by the committee and its reporters, which relate to our future work programme and will require approval by the conveners liaison group; and thirdly, our consideration of a paper by the reporters on the proposed appointment of an aquaculture research co-ordinator.
