Before we move on, I will declare an interest—thank you for reminding me, Dr Gulhane—in that I am a registered nurse with a bank contract with NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde. We move to Ivan McKee.

Dr Cheema, you, not committee members, are here to answer the questions.

No one? I think that that answers your question.

Does that take into account every other service or every other item that is sold?

Perhaps you could write to the committee to clarify that.

The easiest way to do that would be through email correspondence with the clerks.

I thank our witnesses for joining us today. At our meeting on 20 February, we will hear from participants in the committee’s recent informal engagement as part of its post-legislative scrutiny of the Social Care (Self-directed Support) (Scotland) Act 2013.

That concludes the public part of our meeting.

Okay. I call Ruth Maguire.

Thank you, minister. Members should not put questions to the minister during the formal debate, and officials may not speak in the debate.

The next item on our agenda is the first of two oral evidence sessions as part of our post-legislative scrutiny of the Alcohol (Minimum Pricing) (Scotland) Act 2012. I welcome to the meeting Alison Douglas, who is the chief executive of Alcohol Focus Scotland; Dr Alastair MacGilchrist, who is the chair of Scottish Health Action on Alcohol Problems; Tracey McFall, who is the chief executive of the Scottish Recovery Consortium; and Justina Murray, who is the chief executive officer of Scottish Families Affected by Alcohol and Drugs.

We will move straight to questions, starting with Sandesh Gulhane.

Please be brief, because we have to move on.
