The proposals within the Accounting Directive and Transparency Directive require oil, gas, mining, and forestry companies to report payments to governments on both a country-by-country and project-by-project basis. The European Parliament should focus on several critical issues: defend project-level reporting, improve the definition of "project," maintain a materiality threshold of €100,000, remove all exemptions from the Directive, and extend the scope to cover all sectors to enhance transparency and accountability in resource extraction.
