CLLS Planning & Environmental Law Committee's response to Consultation: Developing an oversight regime for assurance of sustainability related financial disclosures
The comments focus on the legal, governance, and implementation issues most likely to affect UK and global businesses in the event of the introduction of the proposed voluntary sustainability assurance registration regime and early views on the suggested mandatory assurance for UK SRS.
The CLLS notes that a sustainability assurance market with international alignment, regulatory certainty and designed to increase competition will best serve UK companies, investors, and the broader economy.
