Good morning and welcome to the 22nd meeting in 2018 of the Health and Sport Committee. I ask everyone to ensure that mobile phones are switched off or set to silent. You are very welcome to tweet or do other things of that sort, but please do not record or film the meeting; that is being done for us by the Parliament’s broadcasting department.
Agenda item 1 is a declaration of interests. In accordance with section 3 of the “Code of Conduct for Members of the Scottish Parliament”, I invite Keith Brown, as a new member, to declare any interests that are relevant to the committee’s remit.
I do not think that you are asking me for a list of health conditions but, in any case, I have no interests to declare.
Thank you. We will take that as a declaration of your having no interests rather than medical testimony. I welcome Keith to the committee. We will be getting another new member next week.
I also take this opportunity to thank Ash Denham, Kate Forbes, Ivan McKee and Alison Johnstone for their work while they were members of the committee, and to congratulate those who have gone on to ministerial office. Clearly the Health and Sport Committee’s work provides many opportunities for issues to be addressed and taken forward, and the work of all four members has been much appreciated by me and, indeed, by the whole committee.
