What have been the latest developments on the European Commission’s Omnibus proposals and how have companies reacted? Listen to Maria Tymtsias, co-founder of the Palau Project and Frank Bold’s Julia Otten 

With the Commission’s Omnibus package now being examined and debated in the European Parliament and the Council, the stakes are high for European businesses. How is industry responding to the Omnibus proposals, and what should they do now?

This week on the Frankly Speaking podcast, Richard Howitt is joined by Frank Bold’s Julia Otten and Maria Tymtsias, co-founder of the Palau Project and senior sustainability consultant.

Together they discussed the findings of Palau’s recent survey of over 170 businesses on their reaction to the Omnibus proposals, as well as what changes the co-legislators will likely make to the current proposals. You’ll also hear more about:

  • What companies think of the Commission’s ‘Stop the clock’ proposal
  • The strategic role of the DMA in sustainability reporting 
  • Why it’s so important for businesses to make their voices heard right now
