Convener
Item 2 is the choice of convener. The procedure has been explained in paper 2, which was provided to members.
The Parliament has agreed that only members of the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party are eligible for nomination as convener of the committee. I invite Peter Chapman to nominate a member for the convenership.
I have great delight in nominating Edward Mountain for this position. Edward will be an excellent convener of the committee and I have no hesitation in putting his name forward.
Are there any other nominations for the position? No.
Edward Mountain was chosen as convener.
Congratulations, Edward. I will now swap places with Edward so that he can convene the rest of our meeting.
