EU Omnibus: Sustainability Framework Simplification
The latest EU Omnibus report proposes significant simplifications to key sustainability regulations while maintaining their environmental objectives. The report focuses on three main regulatory frameworks: For the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), it proposes exemptions for small importers to reduce administrative burdens while preserving the mechanism's effectiveness in preventing carbon leakage. Regarding the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the report recommends streamlined reporting requirements and making taxonomy reporting optional, particularly benefiting SMEs that face disproportionate compliance costs. For the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), it suggests clarifying obligations and simplifying implementation to make compliance more manageable while maintaining the directive's core objectives.
These targeted adjustments were developed following stakeholder consultations and impact assessments, aiming to balance regulatory compliance with economic feasibility. The overall goal is to enhance the efficiency of the EU's sustainability framework while supporting business competitiveness and the EU's open strategic autonomy.
