I assume that the Deputy is referring to the judgement of the Court given on 11 December 2007 in Case C-438/05, International Transport Workers' Federation, Finnish Seamen's Union - V- Viking Line ABP, OU Viking Line Eesti.
The case concerned the application of Article 43 EC (Right of Establishment) in relation to collective action by trade unions against a private undertaking and does not appear to have implications for Irish company law.
