Apologies have been received from Deputy Brendan Ryan. At the request of the broadcasting service, I ask members to turn off their mobile phones completely or to put them into flight mode. The meeting will be broadcast live on Virgin Media channel 207, eVision channel 504 and Sky channel 274 from 2 p.m. In accordance with standard procedures agreed by the Committee on Procedures and Privileges for paperless committees, all documentation has been sent to members on the database.
I propose that we go into private session.
