"The rapporteur makes some positive proposals. The most significant of these is the attention given to workers, clear in opportune statements such as ‘although employment law is the responsibility of the Member States, insolvency law can have an impact on employment law’; ‘in the context of increasing globalisation and indeed of the economic crisis, the issue of insolvency needs to be considered from an employment-law perspective, as differing definitions of ‘employment’ and ‘employee’ in Member States should not undermine the rights of employees in the event of insolvency’; and ‘it is necessary to increase the priority of employees’ claims relative to other creditors’ claims’.
However, the report is not free of contradictions, the most important of which is the attempt to harmonise the conditions under which insolvency proceedings may be opened. Moreover, the interests of small and medium-sized enterprises are not always secured. Although there are some positive points in the opening of proceedings, it is always the most powerful who will benefit most."@en1
