The feedback period for this initiative is open until September 10, 2025.

This proactive approach underscores the EU’s commitment to fostering a “Clean Industrial Deal” that balances robust environmental objectives with the imperative for efficient, competitive, and business-friendly regulatory frameworks. Businesses are encouraged to engage with the ongoing feedback period and prepare for the anticipated changes to adapt their compliance and operational strategies effectively.
