In the context of the last phase of the negotiations on the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), Frank Bold initiated a multistakeholder statement together with the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) and Shift.
The statement brings together over fifty leading business, CSO and union voices in reiterating their support for the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive and calling on negotiators to work towards agreement on this vital framework.
The European Commission is currently running an open public consultation on guidelines for the Corporate Sustainable Due Diligence legislation (CSDDD). Read our submission to the consultation.
The EU Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) are now officially a Delegated Regulation, having been agreed by the President von der Leyen and the College of Commissioners. Barring an unexpected rejection by the co-legislators in the next two months (they can reject the standards, but cannot amend them), this is the final, fixed version of the ESRS.
The European Council has now agreed its negotiating mandate on SFDR 2.0. In several areas, it represents a significant regression from the Commission's proposal and the Parliament's subsequent draft report.
