Scottish Parliament Meeting of the Commission Wednesday 12 December 2007

[The Convener opened the meeting at 11:09]

Good morning. We have been a little delayed by the fire evacuation exercise. I welcome Hugh Henry, who is attending his first meeting of the commission.

I am indeed.

Welcome.

Hear, hear.

There are three items on the agenda. I aim to conclude business by about noon, but of course we will play it by ear, because item 3, on our draft report on Audit Scotland's budget proposal, is substantial.

I have not had time to read the draft report. I did not see it until this morning.

I was going to read it while the convener was talking.

We will take item 3 in private and we can take as long as members need to consider the draft report.
