10/08/2022 - Closing of the EFRAG public consultation on the Draft ESRS EDs

​After a 100-day consultation period on the EFRAG Draft ESRS Exposure Drafts (Draft ESRS EDs), EFRAG closed its public consultation with more than 750 comment submissions in total.



​On 29 April 2022, EFRAG launched a public consultation on the EFRAG Draft ESRS EDs, with a deadline of 8 August 2022. A broad spectrum of stakeholders responded to the public consultation, mostly through the two-part online survey. 

During the public consultation period, EFRAG also organised 16 outreach events in several EU countries to engage closely with stakeholders and get feedback on the Draft ESRS EDs. These outreach events attracted significant interest with close to 5000 registrations overall.

The EFRAG Sustainability Reporting Board (EFRAG SRB) and EFRAG Sustainability Reporting Technical Expert Group (EFRAG SR TEG) will now consider all comments received, as provided by the EFRAG Due Process Procedures. The resulting first set of Draft ESRS will then be handed over to the European Commission in November 2022 to be considered for adoption by way of delegated acts at a later stage.

All comment submissions received in response to the public consultation, to be taken into consideration by EFRAG SRB and SR TEG, are made available through the links below:


It should be noted that the above data is as submitted by respondents to the consultation and may contain a limited number of duplicate or blank submissions.

Comments received after 8 August 2022 are available here.
