View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 312 and 327 together.
The Directive in question provides that Member States may provide for exemption from certain obligations for companies meeting stipulated thresholds.
My Department will be consulting with interested parties to assist with formulating a recommendation to me in this matter.
