The Belgian Council Presidency is proposing to significantly weaken the EU Supply Chain Directive (CSDDD). This is the result of a new compromise proposal available to Table.Briefings. After failing to achieve a qualified majority for the directive for the second time at the level of the deputy EU ambassadors (Coreper I) last week, Belgium wants to use the proposal to address the objections of the member states in order to reach an agreement after all.
