We're just one step away from the final European Parliament green light to have the first EU-wide corporate diligence law in place! 💪

But 'the job is not over, and won’t be until finance is part of the due diligence obligations,' as MEP Lara Wolters just pointed out 👏

The JURI Committee Press just adopted the #CSDDD with a broad majority ✅
