The Convener (Bristow Muldoon): : I welcome members to this meeting of the Local Government and Transport Committee. The first agenda item is consideration of whether to take the other two agenda items in private. Item 2 is consideration of our draft stage 1 report on the Local Governance (Scotland) Bill. We normally consider reports in private before their publication. Item 3 is consideration of our approach to the budget process 2005-06 and will involve discussion of witnesses and of subjects that we want to explore. Do members agree to take those items in private?
Tommy Sheridan (Glasgow) (SSP): : I ask for my dissent to be recorded.
The Convener: : That is fine. Do other members agree to take those items in private?
Members indicated agreement.
The Convener: : Tommy Sheridan's dissent will be recorded.
: Meeting continued in private until 15:28.
