Deputy Chair
Good afternoon and welcome to the first meeting in 2017 of the Scottish Commission for Public Audit.
I welcome Jackie Baillie and Bill Bowman, who have joined the commission since our last meeting. I put on record our thanks to John Lamont for his work as a member of the commission.
I invite Bill Bowman and Jackie Baillie to declare any relevant interests that they have.
I refer members to my entry in the register of members’ interests. I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland, and until 2012 I was a partner in KPMG. In 2016, I did some work for KPMG through a consultancy, but I have not been involved with KPMG since I became a member of the Scottish Parliament.
I have no specific interests to declare. I refer members to my entry in the register of members’ interests.
Thank you. I welcome you to the commission.
I remind members and the public to switch off their mobile phones.
Agenda item 1 is the election of a deputy chair, because John Lamont has left us. I seek nominations for the position of deputy chair. I nominate Bill Bowman.
I am happy to second that.
There are no other nominations. Do you accept the nomination, Bill?
Yes, thank you.
Bill Bowman was chosen as deputy chair.
I welcome you as the deputy chair.
