Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the first meeting in 2016 of the Public Petitions Committee. I wish any colleagues I have not seen before today a happy new year.
Once more with feeling, convener.
Yes. That might be the last time that I say that.
We have received apologies from John Wilson, who told me that he has to be at another event this morning.
Agenda item 1 is to seek the committee’s agreement to take in private agenda item 4, which is on witness expenses. Do members agree to do that?
Members indicated agreement.
