Good morning, and welcome to the 14th meeting of the Citizen Participation and Public Petitions Committee in 2023. We have apologies from our colleague David Torrance, the deputy convener. His substitute, Marie McNair, joins us online. Good morning, Marie, and all those following our proceedings.
Under agenda item 1 we must decide whether to take in private agenda item 6, which relates to our public participation inquiry report, in which we recommended the establishment of two further people’s panels this parliamentary session. The committee has a role in choosing the topics for the panels and item 6 allows us to consider a recommendation from the Parliament’s participation and communities team on the topic for the first panel. It also allows us to consider the topic in the context of the chamber debate on our report, which will take place on 26 October. This morning, I facilitated a Scottish Parliament information centre business breakfast about the committee’s report, so there is quite a lot of interest in and engagement on it. Are members content to take item 6 in private?
Members indicated agreement.
