CSDDD vote: Make-or-break week for EU due diligence directive
It’s unclear whether advocates of the bill have managed to garner sufficient support during the hiatus.
After weeks of delay, the European Council is set to vote on the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive tomorrow, February 28. The CSDDD vote will set the tone for how companies should approach supply chain sustainability in the coming years.
The vote was initially meant to take place on February 9, but was postponed after Germany, Finland and Italy announced their intention to reject the legislation, raising doubts over its ability to obtain the qualified majority it needs to pass.
