Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection

Bogus Self-Employment: Discussion (Resumed)

Professor Michael Doherty:

Precisely. It would be an interesting idea and I am thinking of it as I speak. While it is certainly something that could be done, one would have to be careful about how the specific criteria were framed and there would have to be a reason for it beyond the notion that it is a good thing. I do not want to come across as suggesting that entrepreneurs being self-employed is in some ways a bad thing, because it is not.
