Chamber and committees

Do you want to write to them for some clarification?

Okay. Thank you very much.

If members have no other comments, that completes our public business for today. Our next meeting will be on 2 November, when we will continue to take evidence as part of our pre-budget scrutiny process.

As previously agreed, we now move into private session.

That is fine.

I will come to David Page, then Lynn Brown and then back to Jamie Greene, who I think wants to follow up on Collette Stevenson’s question.

I thank the witnesses for attending. I appreciate it. As usual, if members have any further questions, we will follow up in writing.

We will have a short pause to allow for a change of witnesses.

I will now open the discussion to members. If anyone has questions on the instrument, they should indicate that now.

No member has indicated that they wish to speak, so we will move to the next agenda item. I invite the cabinet secretary to move motion S6M-05960.

Motion moved,

That the Criminal Justice Committee recommends that the Scottish Biometrics Commissioner Act 2020 (Code of Practice) (Appointed Day) (Scotland) Regulations 2022 [draft] be approved.—[Keith Brown]

Motion agreed to.

Thank you. That is helpful.

I will bring in Rona Mackay, and then Jamie Greene might want to come back in.

Russell Findlay has the last questions.

The second letter is from the Scottish Prison Service and relates to purposeful activity. Do members have any comments?
