From September 9 Justice and Environment is meeting in Opatija (Croatia) for a 5-day AGM during which a legal seminar and a strategy meeting also takes place.
The meeting is in order to discuss the status of access rights in light of the upcoming Access to Justice Directive, the future of PCIs within the EU energy infrastructure regulation, the outcomes of a survey on public awareness of the Aarhus Convention and EU law and to prepare strategies, communications plans, fundraising proposals for the future and to decide administrative matters. The meeting is financed be the Central European Initiative.
Whilst the European Parliament and the Council are in the midst of analysing and debating the Omnibus Simplification Package, we suggest our key changes for the co-legislators to implement to ensure that the CSRD is respected.
Following the European Commission’s announcement of its Omnibus Simplification Package at the end of February, both the Council and the European Parliament must now reach their own positions on the proposals, before the trilogue negotiations between all three bodies commence again.
At the end February, we exposed how the European Commission’s recently announced Omnibus proposals intend to modify corporate sustainability due diligence, reporting and taxonomy and how it will influence the effectiveness of these key legal frameworks.
