 Good morning, and welcome to the 14th meeting of the committee for 2019. Can I ask that everyone ensures that all mobile devices are switched off and put away? We have apologies from Annie Wells this morning. Can I welcome Alison Harris as her substitute? Agenda item 1 is a decision on taking business in private, which is agenda item 3, a discussion of correspondence on gypsy travellers from the Scottish Government. Are members agreed? Agenda item 2 is consideration of public petition PE1372, access to justice in environmental matters, by Duncan McLaren on behalf of Friends of the Earth Scotland. The petition calls on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to clearly demonstrate how access to the Scottish courts is compliant with the Arhus convention on access to justice in environmental matters. Can I refer members to paper 1, which is a note from the clerks, and paper 2 from Spice, and invite any comments, please? Thank you, convener. I'd be very keen, given the continued interest in this area, that we write to the Scottish and UK Governments seeking an update on where they're at in terms of progress. I absolutely agree with my colleague Oliver Mundell. It's important that we write and find out what's been happening, because, as we can see from our papers, there has been a lot that's been happening in the intervening period since the petition was lodged quite some time ago now. There are also on-going uncertainties with how the convention is going to apply once we leave the European Union. We have to state that, and we have to get clarity on that as well. Also, just to note that the Scottish Government just published a consultation on environmental principles and governance in Scotland, and it only closed a couple of weeks ago, so we have to give them a chance to collate all the evidence in that, so to be asked to be kept updated with that as well. As the committee has agreed to take item 3 in private, I will now move into private session and ask the public gallery to clear. Our next meeting will be on 6 June, where we will take evidence from the Lord Advocate on the Children's Equal Protection from Assault Scotland bill.
