Agenda item 4 is our forthcoming work programme, on which we have a paper from the clerk. Do members have any questions? I think that the clerk is just seeking our affirmation on the proposed work programme.Does everyone have a copy of the paper?

I am not blaming anybody, but I do not know where my copy is.

It is a single piece of paper.

It is a slim piece of paper, so it is easily missed by men of a certain age, Nigel.Moving on—before I get into further trouble—I might say that the paper is essentially about our continuing work in holding external meetings throughout the country. The suggestion is that we have a meeting on Monday 21 September in Alness. The suggested format is that we focus our attention in particular on school students, local community council organisations, various other organisations and anyone within the broad geographical area who has submitted a petition.

Perhaps anywhere north of Stirling.

Are we happy to accept those arrangements for our next external meeting?

Members indicated agreement.

That concludes the public part of today's meeting. We will now go into private session, so I ask all members of the public who are present to vacate the room. In private, we will discuss a committee report that will be published within the next few weeks. I thank the members of the public who have been in attendance.

Meeting continued in private until 16:23.
