On 11 July 2022, the European Commission adopted a Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EU) No 691/2011 as regards introducing new environmental economic accounts modules.
“The main objective of the proposal is to extend the scope of the European environmental economic accounts to provide better information for the European Green Deal, a growth strategy that aims to transform the EU into a fair and prosperous society, with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy.”
On the same day, the proposal was forwarded to the European Parliament and the Council. This proposal should be the main topic of the CWPS meeting in September 2022. More information about the proposal can be found on the EUR-Lex database and the European Parliament Legislative Observatory database.
