Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
Companies (Protection of Employees’ Rights in Liquidations) Bill 2021: Discussion
Paul Murphy (Dublin South West, RISE) | Oireachtas source
My point basically is that the group is against enhancing workers' redundancy. Quelle surprise. The body is overwhelmingly made up of employers' representatives and its mandate is explicitly not anything to do with workers' rights and protecting workers' rights. In fact, legally it has to come up with advice that promotes enterprise, facilitates commerce and encourages commercial probity. Why should we take its advice on board that much when it is so obviously class biased?
