The UK Financial Reporting Council (FRC), as secretariat to the UK Sustainability Disclosure Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), is requesting views from stakeholders on proposed amendments to the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Standards from the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB).
The TAC is seeking views from users and preparers of sustainability reporting, as well as sectoral/thematic/SASB standard experts, data providers, and other interested bodies, a news release said. Those views are expected to help the TAC prepare its response to the ISSB’s consultation on proposed amendments to the standards.
The ISSB’s exposure drafts are open for comment until 30 November. The ISSB also invites stakeholders to comment on metrics for nature, climate, and human capital-related topics appearing in several industries.
Stakeholders are invited to provide feedback through a short survey by 29 August. More information on how to engage with the TAC on the ISSB’s proposed amendments, or how to register for a September online roundtable on those amendments is available in the FRC’s news release.
