Due to the change in the scope of undertakings subject to sustainability reporting obligations, the provisions on the review and reporting in Directive (EU) 2022/2464 should be adjusted. In order to ensure the Union’s objective of enabling the disclosure of sufficient data on corporate sustainability, the Commission should assess the appropriateness of the new scope of Directive (EU) 2022/2464 as amended by this Directive. It is appropriate for that assessment to be based on, in particular, an analysis of the needs for sustainability data to mobilise private investments towards the objectives of the European Green Deal, on the one hand, and the influence of sustainability reporting on the competitiveness of the Union undertakings, on the other hand. It is also important that the review take into account the best practices developed and the actual level of preparedness of undertakings to provide sustainability disclosures under Directive (EU) 2022/2464. To that end and in light of the principle of proportionality, when considering a possible extension of the scope, it is important that the Commission consider whether to balance that extension with the possibility of establishing a simplified reporting regime.
