Apologies have been received from Senator Jim Walsh who is in Istanbul at the OSCE parliamentary assembly meeting. Draft minutes from the meeting of 26 June have been circulated. Are they agreed? Agreed. Unless there are other matters arising we will proceed with the main business of the meeting.

I appeal to members, witnesses and those in the Visitors Gallery to ensure their telephones are switched off completely
