The government is consulting on changes to improve the efficiency of climate-related financial disclosures. The main proposals include:

  • changing assurance rules to reduce compliance costs

  • providing clearer guidance on key terms and concepts

  • reducing the burden of information requests across supply chains.

The aim is to lower costs for businesses while still keeping reports high-quality, credible and comparable with other countries.

We will sequence any changes introduced to avoid disruption. This recognises the work businesses have already done to prepare for sustainability reporting.
