On this episode of our daily podcast Today in the EU, we’re diving into the EU's Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive - or CSDDD - as legislators gear up for a key vote Friday (15 March), the last push to get it over the line.
The due diligence law has faced rising opposition since the provisional agreement of a final draft in December. It has subsequently been fighting for its survival, after a last-minute change of heart from a number of member states who have feared a negative impact on businesses.
To break down the importance of this legislation and what the voting scenarios could hold, we invited Euractiv’s Economy editor Anna Brunetti into the studio.
