Signatories call the EU to not reopen the Directive for renegotiation.
‘The undersigned companies and industry associations continue to support the goals of the European Union’s sustainability due diligence … We write now to urge at this critical juncture that you focus on delivering the much-needed practical implementation of these rules.

We are particularly concerned about the potential reopening of the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), especially as the CSDDD does not introduce any overlapping reporting requirements’
