Before we commence I must turn to matters relating to EU scrutiny following on from last week's meetings. The proposals listed in schedule A COM (2017) 648 were discussed in full but I reiterate them here for the purposes of transparency. It is proposed there are no subsidiarity concerns with this proposal and that this proposal warrants further scrutiny. It is further proposed to request that the Department updates the committee once its examination of the implications of the reporting obligations contained within the proposal has concluded. Is that agreed? Agreed.

Regarding COM (2017) 406 and COM (2017) 726, it is proposed that the proposals listed in schedule B warrant no further scrutiny. Is that agreed? Agreed.
