The first signs of internal dissent came on 12 March in a letter sent to the EC signed by six European wood industry organisations (CEI-Bois, EFIC, EOS, EPF, ETTF, and FEP).<span id=\"more-35722\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>This was followed on 13 March by a similar letter signed by 19 wood trade organisations in France sent to the French Environment Minister.<\/p>\n<p>The calls for delay escalated in a meeting of the European Agriculture and Fisheries Council on 26 March when Agriculture ministers from 20 of the EU's 27 member countries supported a proposal by Austria to revise the law. The FT reports that EU\u2019s development commissioner Jutta Urpilainen and agriculture commissioner Janusz Wojciechowski have also both called for a delay EUDR in recent months.<\/p>\n<p>On 17 May, the German Bundesrat passed a motion on the EUDR \u201ccalling for an extended implementation and to relieve producers of avoidable, additional bureaucracy where there is no demonstrable risk\". The Bundesrat is the upper chamber of the German government where the L\u00e4nder (States) are represented.<\/p>\n<p>The Bundesrat motion is explicit in its critique of the law noting that \u201cin view of the tight implementation period until December 30, 2024, many unanswered questions remain, such as in particular the clarification of the use of reference numbers and the associated scope of timber lists, the scope and implementation of controls, the legal consequences or the handling of wood from legally converted forests\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It goes on to suggest that \u201cThe test phase revealed glaring deficiencies and showed that it is not possible to implement the regulation in accordance with the current requirements. As a result, the wood-processing industries are currently facing an insurmountable task. There is a threat of considerable burdens for the relevant companies and distortions along the entire wood value chain\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Bundesrat motion calls on the German Federal Government to obtain an implementation regulation from the EU in the short term that is legally compliant with the WTO regulations that extends the deadlines for EUDR implementation, relieves raw material producers in Member States and regions where there is no demonstrable risk of deforestation from avoidable, additional bureaucracy, and enables other market participants to apply it in a practical and legally compliant manner.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, on 27 June, the head of environment policy for the centre-right European People's Party, which emerged victorious in recent EU Parliamentary elections, called explicitly for a two-year delay to EUDR implementation.<\/p>\n<p>Peter Liese, a German MEP since 1994 and freshly reelected, told Euronews that recent contact with officials \u201cat all levels\u201d in the European Commission had shown him \u201ceverybody is aware that we have a problem that cannot be solved without postponement\u201d. As to the length of the delay, he added: \u201cI would consider two years a reasonable time.\"<\/p>\n<p>The German MEP said that while he agreed with the aims of the EUDR, the law as agreed in December 2022 by the European Parliament and European Council had been \u201cturned into a bureaucratic monster\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Euronews emphasises that Liese\u2019s call to delay the EUDR is not yet the official position of the EPP and that the large majority of EPP MEPs voted in favour of EUDR only last year. Euronews note that the EC declined to comment on Liese\u2019s statement, or on whether there were any ongoing discussions within the EC about reopening the file.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Calls for a delay to implementation EUDR have become louder inside the EU itself in recent months.
