In the exam (Estonian)
Liisa on minister. Talle pakutakse kohta suure aktsiaseltsi nõukogus. Mida ütleb selle kohta põhiseadus?
- aAs a minister she may not be a member of a company's supervisory board.Ministrina ei tohi ta kuuluda ettevõtte nõukogusse.Correct answer
- bShe may join the supervisory board if the Prime Minister gives permission.Ta võib nõukogusse minna, kui peaminister annab loa.
- cShe may join the supervisory board if she is not paid for it.Ta võib nõukogusse minna, kui ta seal tasu ei saa.
- dShe may join the supervisory board, but not the management board.Ta võib minna nõukogusse, aga mitte juhatusse.
Why?
A member of the Government may not hold any other public office or be a member of the management board or supervisory board of a business company. Permission from the Prime Minister or working without pay does not change this, and the ban applies to both the management board and the supervisory board. (PS § 99)
