Good morning, and welcome to the fourth meeting in 2021 of the Local Government and Communities Committee. Please ensure that all your mobile phones are in silent mode.
I remind members that broadcasting will operate your cameras and microphones as usual. Please allow a short pause after being called to speak, to allow them to do so.
Annie Wells has sent her apologies, and her committee substitute today is Jeremy Balfour.
Item 1 is consideration of whether to take item 3 in private. Item 3 is consideration of the evidence on the climate change plan that we will have heard today. As we are meeting remotely, rather than ask whether everyone agrees, I will ask whether anyone objects. If there is silence, I will assume that you are content. Does anyone object?
No one has objected, so that is agreed. Item 3 will be taken in private.
