Swedish Enterprise welcomes the Commission’s screening of environmental laws to identify legislative acts with significant potential for simplifying administrative tasks without affecting environmental protection. Swedish Enterprise and Swedish companies fully support the EU’s climate targets, environmental ambitions, and the core purpose of much of the environmental legislation adopted or proposed in recent years. Businesses are committed to contributing to these goals, and with well-balanced and carefully designed regulatory simplifications and improvements, companies can strengthen their environmental performance in a more cost-effective and efficient way. Such measures would make it more attractive for companies to invest in sustainability and thereby help deliver on the ambitions of the legislation, while ensuring that competitiveness and innovation remain strong drivers of Europe’s green transition. In the attached document we suggest several legislations/legislative concepts for revision.
