We have made good progress. This seems like a good place for us to break for the day, so that completes our first day of stage 2 consideration of the bill. We will continue our consideration at our meeting next week.
I thank the cabinet secretary and her officials for their attendance.

Good morning, and welcome to the 27th meeting in 2022 of the Equalities, Human Rights and Civil Justice Committee. We have received no apologies for this morning’s meeting.
The first item on our agenda is to take evidence from the Minister for Equalities and Older People on our pre-budget scrutiny. I refer members to paper 1. I welcome the Minister for Equalities and Older People, Christina McKelvie, who is supported by two Scottish Government officials: Eileen Flanagan, interim strategic lead for disability, older people, British Sign Language, social isolation and loneliness and LGBTI equality; and Rob Priestley, interim head of the mainstreaming and strategy unit at the directorate for equality, inclusion and human rights. You are all very welcome.
Minister, would you like to make some brief opening remarks before we move to questions?
