European Work Councils and Legislative Provisions for Dispute Procedures: Discussion (Resumed)
Dr. Jonathan Lavelle:
We talked about the means and we focused a little more on the financial means but there are obviously statutory means as well. That gets to Deputy Murphy's question as well. There is much debate around now and a lot of variability across member states regarding how it is worded and whether European works councils can take those cases. That goes back to the bigger issue of means, both statutory and financial.
