Interests

Welcome to the first meeting in 2019 of the Education and Skills Committee. I wish everyone a happy new year.

I remind everyone to turn mobile phones and other devices to silent in case they interfere with the broadcasting system.

Agenda item 1 is a declaration of interests. We have received apologies from Gordon MacDonald, whose substitute is Gil Paterson. Mr Paterson is attending the committee for the first time, so I welcome him and invite him to declare any interests.

I refer to my interests that are on the public record. I have no additions to that with regard to my attendance here.
