Interests

We see that as an advantage to us.

Good morning. I welcome everyone to the Justice Committee’s 27th meeting in 2012. I ask everyone to switch off their mobile phones and other electronic devices, as they interfere with the broadcasting system, even when they are switched to silent. Apologies have been received from David McLetchie. I welcome Sandra White to the meeting as our new member. She can tell us in private afterwards how she feels about it.

Item 1 is a declaration of interests. Does Sandra White have any interests that are relevant to the remit of the committee that she wishes to declare?

I have nothing to declare, convener, although I draw your attention to the fact that the committee has a number of petitions on the agenda and that I was on the Public Petitions Committee when it dealt with those petitions.
