Interests

Good morning and welcome to the 13th meeting in 2022 of the Social Justice and Social Security Committee.

I should say first of all that we have had a change of committee membership, and I want to welcome to the committee Paul McLennan. He replaces Marie McNair, whom I thank for her valued contribution to the committee since its establishment.

Agenda item 1, therefore, is a declaration of interests. I invite Paul McLennan to declare any relevant interests.

I refer members to my entry in the register of members’ interests. I am—at least for the next two weeks—a serving councillor, and I am also the owner of a rental property in East Lothian.

Thank you very much for that, and welcome on board.
