Good morning. Welcome to the seventh meeting in 2024 of the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee. We have received no apologies this morning.
Our first agenda item is a decision on whether to take items 3 and 4 in private. Item 3 is consideration of the evidence that we are about to hear in public session and item 4 is consideration of our approach to a report from the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body. Are members happy to take those items in private?
Members indicated agreement.
