The document provides an overview of Ireland's co-operative sector. It finds that while co-operatives make up a significant part of the economy, particularly in agriculture, their role is more limited compared to other countries. Key issues facing Irish co-operatives include a lack of quality data, underutilization of the co-operative model, ensuring a level playing field with other business forms, reducing regulatory burdens, improving access to capital, and developing management competencies. The report recommends that Ireland could benefit from expanding the role of co-operatives in new sectors like housing, healthcare, and community development.
