Brussels – “The Commission does not intend to revise the European Green Deal<\/strong> or to review or withdraw the legislation concerned, which was subject to\u00a0public consultation,” said\u00a0Jessika Roswall,<\/strong> European Commissioner for the Environment and Circular Economy, who rejects any idea of a step backward on behalf of the entire college. Specifically, Roswall says ‘no’ to calls\u00a0from the ranks of Sovereignists in the European Parliament, who criticize<\/a> the role of environmental associations in supposedly setting the twelve-star sustainable policy agenda.<\/p>\n

Indeed, at the political level, the\u00a0Popular (EPP) family\u00a0is ready for changes to the Green Deal, but\u00a0targeted ones<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0—<\/strong>not erasing it.\u00a0With this in mind, it is essential to remember that public consultations are not prohibited practices. On the contrary,<\/a> when the EU executive intends to establish new legislation or amend existing one, it can listen to so-called ‘stakeholders,’ the interested parties that would be affected by the bill. Stakeholders span several branches: business, civil society and associations, trade unions, and consumer organizations.<\/p>\n

So yes, Roswall admits, “environmental organizations and other stakeholders had the opportunity to present their views and<\/strong> positions,” but this does not imply that such associations wrote the\u00a0rules.<\/p>\n

As for the accusations of funding environmental associations, Roswall reminds the entire League delegation that nothing\u00a0is against the rules. On the contrary, “The EU Program for the Environment and Climate Action (LIFE) provides, amongst others, financial support for the functioning of non-governmental organizations <\/strong>(NGOs), supporting civil society\u2019s participation in policy-making, in line with the LIFE Regulation\u00a0and the\u00a0EU financial regulation<\/a>.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
