Good morning, and welcome to the sixth meeting in 2022 of the Equalities, Human Rights and Civil Justice Committee.

The first agenda item is a decision on whether to take in private item 3, which is consideration of the evidence that we will hear today. Do members agree to take that item in private?

Thank you very much. The boys club is something that we all need to be very alert to in daily life. Sometimes, it is not a deliberate thing, but you make a good point there.

I thank everyone for their comments. We will now move to questions from committee members and a bit of a discussion. Members will suggest who they want to hear from first, but if anybody wants to respond to a particular question, they should put an R in the chat function.

Maggie Chapman is first.
