Corporate governance report: review of the producer responsibility initiative model in Ireland

Abstract/summary

This Report considers the legal relationship between the Schemes and the DECLG. It discusses the current framework of this relationship (including the contractual documentation in place between the DECLG and the Schemes) and outlines our recommendations for changes to this framework in order to develop the relationship between the two parties and to streamline it whilst optimising the desired environmental outcomes. These recommendations call for the implementation of a coherent set of rules to (1) govern the legal relationship between the Schemes and the DECLG, (by way of a Service Level Agreement) and (2) implement rules according to which the Schemes should be governed internally (by way of one Corporate Governance Code which all Schemes would be obliged to sign up to pursuant to the provisions of their respective Service Level Agreement).
