Food Additives, Flavourings, Enzymes and Extraction Solvents (Scotland) Regulations 2013 (SSI 2013/266)

Good morning and welcome to the 29th meeting in 2013 of the Health and Sport Committee. As usual at this point, I remind those present to switch off mobile phones, BlackBerrys and other wireless devices, as they can often interfere with the sound system. You may have noticed that some of the members and officials are using iPads and other tablet devices, but they are doing so instead of using hard copies of the meeting papers—we are not just googling or doing emails.

We have apologies from Richard Simpson. Malcolm Chisholm is with us as the Labour Party substitute.

Agenda item 1 is subordinate legislation. We have one negative instrument to consider. There has been no motion to annul and the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee has drawn the committee’s attention to two points, the details of which are in members’ papers. If there are no questions from members, is it agreed that the committee has no recommendation to make on the instrument?

Members indicated agreement.

Thank you.
