TD accuses firm of exploiting workers

VITA CORTEX was accused of exploiting workers and asset-stripping during an emergency Dáil debate into the dispute.

Labour TD Ciarán Lynch accused boss Jack Ronan of letting the firm engage in practices which amounted to “skullduggery”, even though they were legal, as he demanded a reform of corporate law.

“We must ensure that the laws are changed to ensure we do not see the type of skullduggery engaged in by his company to renege on payments to his employees.”
