With the EP adopting #Omnibus1, SMEs outside #CSRD/#CS3D should benefit from a strong value-chain cap and only share #VSME data.

Omnibus 1 boosts VSME uptake and once-only reporting.

SMEunited calls for #proportionality, legal clarity and #ThinkSmallFirst.

@europarl.europa.eu #EFRAG

SMEunited welcomes progress on #Omnibus1. A strong value chain cap, market acceptance of EFRAG #VSME and simple interoperable tools applying the #onceonly principle are essential to cut reporting burdens and give #SMEs legal clarity with a risk-based focus.

Ahead of next week’s #trilogue on #Omnibus1, SMEunited calls for a proportionate outcome for #SMEs.

✅ Legal certainty on what SMEs must provide
✅ #VSME = cap of information requests
✅ Risk-based approach to identify supply-chain risks

Today, MEPs passed a text even weaker that the last #JURI report. @eppgroup.bsky.social sided with the far-right to further dilute the #CSDDD. It deleted climate transition plans and rejected renewed proposals for an EU-wide civil liability regime. #Omnibus1 (1/7)

DRAMA AFLYST
#EP har landet enighed om #Omnibus1. Godt nyt for Europas SMV’er og et klart signal om, at forenkling tages alvorligt. Nu må trilogerne levere en hurtig og konstruktiv aftale uden nye politiske benspænd.
Europa har brug for handling & ikke mere drama #SMEunited @smeunited.bsky.social 👇🏻

Disastrous votes in European Parliament this morning including on #Omnibus1 changes to #DueDiligence rules:

⚠️Fewer companies reporting
⚠️Scrapping of mandatory climate transition plans

This is just days after 100+ legal experts said Omnibus 1 could be illegal

EU conservatives vote with far right to approve cuts to green rules The outcome highlights the EPP’s willingness to abandon its traditional centrist coalition allies.

Pettymys. EU-parlamentti on juuri äänestänyt yritysvastuulainsäädännön heikentämisen puolesta.

As the Parliament prepares to vote on #Omnibus1, SMEs still face multiple ESG questionnaires.

The #EFRAG #VSME standard can help reduce this burden - but SMEs need user-friendly digital tools.

As #Omnibus1 negotiations continue, SMEunited stresses the goal must remain #simplification and clarity for #SMEs:

✅ VSME scope unchanged
✅ Align due diligence with #VSME
✅ Civil liability stays national
✅ Clear risk ID steps
✅ Climate plans avoid supply chain confusion

At the Enterprise Policy Committee, Chair Luca Crosetto stressed that #SMEs and SMCs differ in resources and must not be confused.

✅ No extra #VSME datapoints in #Omnibus1
✅ #SingleMarket Strategy must support smallest companies
✅ Roadmap must ensure SME access to services

“Simplification must bring clarity - not more pressure on #SMEs”, said Sophia Zakari at the Euractiv #Omnibus1 event.

✅ VSME should cap supply chain demands
⚠️ “Plausible info” needs clear limits
📚 SMEs need local support & training
