There are six proposals in the report. Proposal No. 1 references the removal of the insolvency exception from the prohibition on implementing collective redundancies during the consultation period. The committee will undertake a job of work on the way forward in light of this meeting. If that proposal was implemented, would it address the issue around employees being stuck in limbo in terms of their not being paid by their employer and at the same time not being entitled to jobseeker's benefits?
