Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning, and welcome to the 16th meeting in 2023 of the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee. Today, unfortunately, the committee is without Evelyn Tweed, who is feeling unwell. I therefore welcome Alasdair Allan as her substitute, and I invite him to declare any registered interests of his that might affect the decisions of the committee.

I cannot see anything that is relevant, but I refer to my entry in the register of members’ interests.

That is excellent.

Our first item is a decision on taking in private agenda item 5, which is consideration of the committee’s work programme. Do members agree to take that item in private?

Members indicated agreement.
