Views sought on multiple-vote share structures

Views are being sought on Ireland’s implementation of new EU rules on multiple-vote share structures for companies seeking to trade their shares in certain financial markets.

Directive (EU) 2024/2810 aims to facilitate SME owners’ access to market financing without jeopardising the control they have over their companies. It must be transposed into Irish law by 4 December 2026.

The Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment is currently inviting submissions to a public consultation on its transposition into Irish law.

The department is welcoming submissions in general, as well as responses to the specific questions included in appendix 1 of the consultation document.

Respondents are requested to make their submissions by email to CLRUNIT@enterprise.gov.ie by 5pm on Monday 8 September 2025.
