I have no note of any apologies. If any come in subsequently they should be given to the secretariat.
I remind members and those in the Visitors' Gallery to ensure their mobile telephones and BlackBerrys are switched off completely for the duration of the meeting as they cause interference, even on silent mode, with the recording equipment in the committee rooms. I ask that this instruction be respected.
The minutes of the meetings held on 24 and 25 November 2010 have been circulated. Are there any matters arising?
