Good morning, and welcome to the sixth meeting in 2024 of the Rural Affairs and Islands Committee. Before we begin, I remind anyone who is using electronic devices to please switch them to silent. I have received apologies from Finlay Carson, which is why I am convening this morning and why Jamie Halcro Johnston has joined us as his committee substitute.
Our first item of business is consideration of the draft Scottish Food Commission (Appointment) Regulations 2024, which is an affirmative Scottish statutory instrument. I welcome to the meeting Mairi Gougeon, Cabinet Secretary for Rural Affairs, Land Reform and Islands, and her officials: Lisa Nowak, policy officer for the good food nation team, and James Hamilton from the legal directorate.
I invite the cabinet secretary to make an opening statement.
