As the oldest member of the committee—or, as I prefer to call it, the most senior member of the committee—I have the pleasure of convening the meeting for the first three items of business. I welcome all members to their new roles. This new committee has an incredible responsibility and a precious opportunity in relation to climate change to scrutinise and support the step change that is needed at all levels of society if we are to protect our planet and communities and develop a new quality of life for everyone in Scotland and across the world for today and tomorrow.
