Good morning, and welcome to the seventh meeting in 2022 of the Criminal Justice Committee. No apologies have been received.
The first agenda item is a decision on whether to take in private item 4, which is discussion of the evidence that we are about to hear on the Coronavirus (Recovery and Reform) (Scotland) Bill. I also seek agreement that consideration of the evidence that is heard and of draft reports on the bill should be taken in private at future meetings. Do we agree to take those items of business in private?
Members indicated agreement.
