Deputy Convener

The Convener (Douglas Ross)

Good morning and welcome to the 29th meeting in 2024 of the Education, Children and Young People Committee.

I welcome Jackie Dunbar, who joins the committee this morning. She replaces our colleague Stephanie Callaghan. On behalf of the committee, I thank Stephanie for her work while she was a member of the committee during session 6.

Our first item of business is to choose a new deputy convener. The Parliament has agreed that only members of the Scottish National Party are eligible for nomination as deputy convener. I understand that Jackie Dunbar is the Scottish National Party’s nominee. Do we agree to the nomination of Jackie Dunbar?

Jackie Dunbar was chosen as deputy convener.

The Convener

Congratulations, Jackie, and welcome to your new role as deputy convener.

I take this opportunity to thank Evelyn Tweed for everything that she has done as deputy convener of the committee. It is great that you are continuing with us on the committee, Evelyn.
