New reports about employee ownership in European countries

Press Review   
Much new information about employee ownership in September 2006, with 1.507   articles in our press review (on which 280 about workers' co-operatives).
We made a selection of 50 remarkable articles in 15 countries: Austria, Australia, China, Germany, Spain, France, Ireland, Italy, Jamaica, Kenya, Mali, Malaysia, UK, US, South Africa.
The scandals about stock options got new developments in France and the US (561 articles). France developed a hot political debate about restraining or even forbidding  stock options in the future. Similar reactions appeared in other countries. Other information came from abroad. Much noise about nothing?
Austria: Following recent elections, things could be more open for new employee ownership developments.
China opens its doors: two of China's top four commercial banks, will initiate employee stock ownership plans in the near future.
France was the hottest place regarding employee ownership in September (354 articles in the press). The new legislation is now going to be voted by the Parliament. 
Germany
: Political parties of the big coalition are both working about employee ownership and the future of  German "Mitbestimmung" (co-decision).
Ireland:  Air company Aer Lingus is being privatised bringing wider place for employee ownership.
Jamaica: Digicel grants share options to all its 2.000 employees.
Mali: employee share ownership is developing in the telecoms.
