On 5 April 2023, the European Commission issued a call for feedback on a proposed Delegated Regulation containing a new set of EU Taxonomy criteria for economic activities making a substantial contribution to one or more of the following environmental objectives: sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources, transition to a circular economy, pollution prevention and control and protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems.
The Commission is also consulting on a proposed Delegated Regulation containing targeted amendments to the Taxonomy Climate Delegated Act (Commission Delegated Regulation 2021/2139), covering the environmental objectives of climate change mitigation and adaptation, and on the Taxonomy Disclosures Delegated Act (Commission Delegated Regulation 2021/2178).
The deadline for feedback on both proposed Delegated Regulations is 3 May 2023.
