The social and economic committee can call on the assistance of an expert of its choice, paid for by the company.
The task of this expert is to analyse the process of finding a buyer, its methodology and scope, to assess the information made available to potential buyers, to study takeover offers and to provide assistance in the search for a buyer by the social and economic committee and in the development of takeover projects.
The expert submits his report within the timeframe set out in Article L. 1233-30.
When the social and economic committee calls on the assistance of an expert, the employer informs the administrative authority without delay.
