Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
General Scheme of the Cooperative Societies Bill 2022: Discussion
Paul Gavan (Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
As I am running short on time I will fire in one last question across all parties. Two witnesses have raised the issue of asset lock, which currently is not proposed in legislation. Sinn Féin supports the legislation but wants to see where it can be strengthened further. One aspect we believe is a legal definition of a worker co-operative but a second is that which the two parties have raised, the asset lock. Will they talk about why that is important? Will they have any particular objection to an asset lock being added to legislation?
