Committee on Enterprise, Tourism and Employment

Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals

2:00 am

Dr. Rachel Widdis:

The company in Galway is a great example because it is really pragmatic as to how this works. For the CSDDD, which is the core of preventing harm to people, you would only be looking anywhere near that company if there was a risk to people. In risk-based due diligence, we assume that a company in Galway operating in Ireland, which has very strong laws, probably would not be on the radar because it is not a risk in risk-based due diligence.
