6/6 Europe’s small businesses need a Single Market that works for them — one that opens opportunities, not one that creates unnecessary barriers.

5/6 We need to make sure that the suspension comes into force before end of November since Black Friday and Christmas sales are important to small businesses.

4/6 I call on the European Parliament to follow the lead of the ENVI Committee and also the Council to adopt their position so that we can start the trilogues in October. Because the time is essential.

3/6 This is an important step in the right direction. When our rules create unnecessary complexity for small businesses, it is our responsibility to make things easier.

2/6 Yesterday, the ENVI Committee voted by an overwhelming majority in favour of suspending the authorised representation requirements under the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) for micro and small companies. This is exactly what we proposed in the Environmental Omnibus last December.

Small businesses should thrive in the Single Market — not be held back by unnecessary bureaucracy. A thread about PPWR.

This summer of extreme heat and drought has underlined more than ever how fundamental our water agenda is to increasing our resilience, and the renewed political ambition set out in the State of the Union confirms this.

There can be no repeat of this summer. As President @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu outlined in #SOTEU2026, Europe needs to prepare for more extreme heat and water scarcity. A European Heatwave Plan and new Water Initiative will help protect people, farmers, food security and our economy.

Den 10 december förra året presenterade jag miljöomnibussen och föreslog att kraven skulle strykas för små företag. Nu ligger frågan hos rådet och Europaparlamentet. Min uppmaning är enkel: agera snabbt. Små företag behöver mindre regelkrångel – inte mer. www.svd.se/a/Bx2mVe/eu-...
