Responses to the EFRAG consultation on the due process for EU sustainability reporting standard-setting
23 Nov 2021
In June 2021, EFRAG launched a public consultation on the requirements EFRAG plans to follow in its role as technical advisor to the European Commission in the preparation of European sustainability reporting standards envisioned in the draft Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. A summary of the responses to the consultation is now available.
Respondents to the consultation especially stressed the need for proper due process and transparency during the work that is already being carried out before the new Sustainability Standards Board has been established, the need for an orderly and transparent transition to the new governance structure, and the need to build on existing standards and frameworks for sustainability reporting and accounting and to cooperate with other standard setters in the field, especially the IFRS Foundation's ISSB.
The summary of responses is available on the EFRAG website.
