The only other matter that I need to address at this point is an apology from Adam Ingram MSP. I understand that he has a number of committee clashes, so unfortunately he has been unable to attend this committee for a few weeks.
In addition, I welcome George Reid MSP who is here to speak to the petition at agenda item 3.Apologies have been intimated from Adam Ingram and Des McNulty.
Also present are Paul Martin, Fiona McLeod and Dr Richard Simpson. All those MSPs take an interest in the matter that forms item 1 on our agenda, although they are not members of the committee.
However, I welcome to the meeting two non-members of the committee: Alasdair Morgan MSP and Alex Fergusson MSP. Alex is the constituency MSP for the area and Alasdair is a regional MSP for the area.
I suspect that the paper refers only to MSPs and the parties. Any bill will be helped by having broad support, but there could be reasons why some bills that do not have broad support should still be able to be introduced.
It is my understanding that the balance of natural and artificial light has not changed in the MSPs' rooms. It was always envisaged that there would be a lot of natural light.
