EU Taxonomy Stakeholder Request Mechanism
|
In order to evaluate and consider suggestions from stakeholders regarding activities in the EU Taxonomy, the Platform on Sustainable Finance together with the Commission is launching today the Stakeholder Request Mechanism. The mechanism allows stakeholders to submit suggestions, based on scientific and/or technical evidence, on new economic activities that could be added to the EU Taxonomy or on potential revisions of technical screening criteria of existing activities. The Platform on Sustainable Finance will analyse the requests submitted and provide the Commission with recommendations. The Stakeholder Request Mechanism will be accessible at any time, allowing respondents to submit their input whenever they want. On 15 December 2023, all requests will be processed by the Platform’s Technical Working Group. After 15 December, the tool will continue to run, and a second cut-off-date will be communicated as soon as possible. The Commission and the Platform will monitor the tool regularly.
