Podcasts about Omnibus

Tune in to the latest episode of our EUnpacked podcast series in which we try to untangle the famous or rather infamous ‘Omnibus I' package unveiled by the European Commission on 26 February this year. The proposal aims to simplify ESG reporting and due diligence obligations, responding to new political and geopolitical imperatives pushing a simplification and burden-reduction drive to boost the EU's competitiveness. Podcast host and Head of the Freshfields EU Regulatory & Public Affairs Team Natalie Pettinger Kearney is joined by Léa Bareil, ESG lead in the Brussels public affairs team together with Juliane Hilf and Vanessa Jakovich, both partners in the firm's leading ESG regulatory practice.

In this week's omnibus episode of the Echo Tips Podcast, host David Ward provides an in-depth, yet constructively critical, review of the Library of Congress's "My Talking Books" Alexa skill for individuals with print disabilities. While praising the skill's responsive setup and book listing capabilities, David highlights several key areas for improvement, particularly in playback control and navigation. He contrasts the "My Talking Books" interface with the more intuitive designs of similar skills from RNIB and Vision Australia, demonstrating issues with pausing requirements for commands and a cumbersome multi-step exit process. David proposes innovative solutions such as the implementation of distinct voices and auditory cues to enhance user feedback and differentiate the skill's environment. He also touches upon the potential of AI to revolutionize accessibility interfaces and points out inconsistencies in content availability compared to other NLS platforms. This episode serves as a passionate call for a more user-friendly and efficient experience for accessing talking books via Alexa.## AttributionGalloway's Demohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4Hk6J71PTEDot to Dot Podcast Episode 1650https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dot-to-dot-the-daily-5min-alexa-demo-show/id1205291265

Die EU-Kommission möchte einen signifikanten Bürokratieabbau von mindestens 25% erreichen, bei mittelständischen Unternehmen sogar von mindestens 35%, um den Wettbewerb der europäischen Wirtschaft zu stärken. Als Konsequenz sollen die nachhaltigkeitsbezogenen Berichts- und Sorgfaltspflichten nach der Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (kurz: CSRD), der Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (kurz CSDDD) und der Taxonomie-Verordnung sowie der Anwenderkreis wesentlich begrenzt und die Erstanwendungszeitpunkte ausgedehnt werden. Hierzu hatte die EU-Kommission am 26. Februar ein sog. Omnibus-I-Paket veröffentlicht, das derzeit kontrovers in Unternehmenspraxis und Politik diskutiert wird. Wir möchten in diesem Podcast die zentralen Inhalte des Omnibus-Pakets vorstellen und eine kritische Bilanz ziehen. +++ Mehr Infos zu diesem Thema finden Sie in unserer Zeitschrift DER BETRIEB.

Hvordan påvirker hele ESG-dagsordenen bankerne? Vil bankerne være motor for en mere bæredygtig fremtid, og hvordan vurderer bankerne i det hele taget kunderne set fra et ESG-perspektiv? Det kan du høre mere om i dagens udgave af Bæredygtig Business, hvor jeg har Camilla Kirkegaard Jensen, afdelingsdirektør for Koncern ESG i Sydbank på besøg. Bankerne har stået som en central institution i industrialiseringen og den økonomiske vækst i de vestlige samfund. En vækst, der også har givet os den galopperende klima- og biodiversitetskrise, som vi står midt i. Nu banker klimaudfordringen også på hoveddøren hos bankerne – i form af nye former for risici, muligheder og regulering, og i dag kan du høre mere om, hvordan Danmarks tredjestørste bank Sydbank håndterer det. RETTELSE: I episoden bliver det omtalt, at Sydbank har skullet nedskrive årsregnskabet med 446 milliarder – det er en fejl, og der skulle være sagt 446 millioner. Du kan høre om: • Hvordan de slækkede krav om bæredygtighedsrapportering efter Omnibus kan påvirke Sydbanks måde at risikovurdere kunderne på • Hvordan Sydbank bruger dialog til at lave en ESG-score af erhvervskunderne • Hvilke fordele bankerne har ved at tage en god samtale med kunderne om ESG • ”Grønne lån” Nævnt i episoden: • Sustainable Finance Disclosures Regulation (SFDR): https://www.finanstilsynet.dk/finansielle-temaer/baeredygtighedsoplysninger/disclosureforordningen-sfdr • PAI-indikatorer: https://lex.dk/PAI_statement • Camilla Kirkegaard Jensen på LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/camillakj/ Tips, idéer eller ønsker?

Masz swoją stronę internetową, platformę, sklep lub aplikację i zastanawiasz się, czy musisz coś zmieniać ze względu na Europejski i Polski Akt o Dostępności (EEA i PAD)? Jesteś we właściwym miejscu. Europejski Akt o Dostępności (EEA) to dyrektywa unijna, podobnie jak np. OMNIBUS. Dyrektywa, w przeciwieństwie do rozporządzenia obowiązującego bezpośrednio, np. RODO, GPSR, DSA, wymaga implementacji do prawa krajowego. Stąd Polski Akt o Dostępności (PAD) – ustawa o zapewnianiu spełniania wymagań dostępności niektórych produktów i usług przez podmioty gospodarcze, która obowiązuje od 28 czerwca 2025 roku. Tyle, gdy chodzi o wprowadzenie. Teraz przejdźmy do konkretów. 00:00 Co to znaczy, że strona internetowa ma być dostępna? 01:15 Akt o Dostępności i WCAG - w czym rzecz? 03:34 Jak najlepiej myśleć o dostępności? 05:05 Produkty i usług objęte wymaganiami dostępności 06:07 Mikroprzedsiębiorcy mają fajrant 08:50 Wymogi dostępności określone Aktem o Dostępności 10:14 Podsumowanie Materiały dodatkowe: 1️⃣ mój poradnik tekstowy: https://prakreacja.pl/wcag-eea-pad-tajemniczy-akt-o-dostepnosci-i-jego-wplyw-na-e-commerce-sklepy-internetowe-strony-serwisy-platformy-aplikacje-saasy-itp/ 2️⃣ Praliny PraKreacji: https://prakreacja.pl/praliny-prakreacji/ 3️⃣ książka Wojtka Kutyły o dostępności: https://wojtekkutyla.pl/ksiazka-o-dostepnosci/. #ecommerce #prawo

Impetūs in carcerēs Gallicōs Per tōtam Galliam, quippe cūius magistātūs cōnārentur illicitum venēnī commercium cohibērē, quīdam conjūrātī impetūs in novem carcerēs bis hāc hebdomade fēcērunt. In Portū Telōniēnsī, latrōnēs armīs mīlitāribus atque automaticīs ūsī sunt; et Nemotodūrī, Villapictae, Vallentiae, et in aliīs urbibus vehicula extrā carcerēs sunt combusta. Ambigitur autem, utrum grassātōrēs, utpote quī in magistrātūs illicitum commercium cohibentēs īrāscantur, an sectātōrēs novae cūiusdam atque anteā ignōtae factiōnis partium sinistrārum impetūs fēcerint. Yoon reus Yoon Suk Yeol, ōlim praeses Cōrēae Merīdiōnālis, quī rīte est magistrātū prīvātus, reus est tyrannidis affectātae. Yoon negāvit sē tyrannidem affectāvisse sed tōtam tōtīus reīpūblicae auctōritātem sibi cēpisse ad proditōrēs excutiendōs. Praeside summōtō comitia indicta sunt in tertium diem mēnsis Iūniī. Humala vinculīs tenētur Ollanta Humala, ōlim praeses Perūviānōrum, secundum mōrēs et cōnsuētudinem ad carcerem advēnit, ubi quīndecim annōs vinculīs tenēbitur. Nam Perūviānī carcerem habent praesidibus dēstinātum, ubi nēmō nisi priōrēs magistrātūs tenētur. Humala uxorque, quae in Brasilicum exilium confūgit, reī ac damnātī sunt corruptiōnis, quī pecūniam ab Odebrecht sīve Novonor societāte fabrōrum Brasiliēnsium oblatam accēpissent. Cuius societātis dūcēs iūdicibus rogantibus respondērunt sē triginta annōs ferē omnēs Perūviānōs candidātōs summum magistrātum ambientēs dōnīs corrūpisse. Duo aliī praesidēs Perūviānōrum, vidēlicet Alexandrus Tolēdo et Petrus Castillō, iam in carcere praesidentiālī tenentur, et quaestiō habētur in duōs aliōs. Nobōa secundum ēlectus Daniēl Nobōa secundum ēlectus est praeses Aequitōriānōrum. Quī in prīmō magistrātū latrōnēs coniurātōs vī mīlitārī repressit atque etiam impetum in sēdem lēgātiōnis Mexicānōrum fēcit ut Geōrgium Glas, ōlim vicepraesidem et corruptiōnis accūsātum, comprehenderet. Officīna fūsōrum pūblicāta Senātus Britannōrum in extraordināriam sessiōnem convocātus est quī extraordināriam auctōritātem magistrātibus concēderet ad ultimam officīnam fūsōrum, quī chalybem fundunt, servandam. Omnibus enim nostrae aetātis gentibus chalybs est materia nōn sōlum ūtilis sed etiam necessāria, nōn sōlum ad domūs aedificandās ac vehicula facienda sed etiam ad arma paranda. Sed societas Sinēnsis, quae officīnam fūsōrum ēmerat, negāvit eam posse sibi lucrum reddere. Itaque magistrātibus vidētur, ut salūtem pūblicam et facultātem chalybis fundendae tueāntur, officīnam pūblicāre. Quid sit fēmina, ā Britannīs fīnītur Suprēmī Iūdicēs Britannōrum diē Mercuriī cēnsuērunt tantum illās hominēs esse fēminās, quae secundum nātūram sīve biologicam artem essent muliebris sexūs, nōn vērō omnēs, quaecumque sē dīcerent esse fēminās. Quod iūdicibus decernendum erat, quia lēgēs Britannōrum quaedam iūra fēminīs reservant, quae aliīs dēnegantur. Aliae vērō, quae ad genus fēminīnum rātiōnibus medicīs vel sociālibus transīvērunt, metuunt nē iūra sua dēminuantur. Contrōversia enim orta est annō bis millēsimō duodēvīcēsimō, cum senātus Caledōniōrum lēgem tulit quā dimidia pars conciliōrum pūblicōrum fēminīs reservārētur, quō aequius marēs et fēminae repraesentārentur, atque eae, quae ad genus fēminīnum trānsīvērunt, in eō numerō inclūderentur. Melōnī in Americā Gēorgia Melōnī, sōla dux Eurōpaea quae invītāta erat ad inaugurātiōnem praesidis Americānī spectandam, Americam iterum vīsitāvit et cum praeside Americānō est collocūta. Dīxit praesidem Americānum sibi condīxisse Rōmam vīsitandam, ubi etiam cum lēgātīs Ūniōnis Eurōpaeae colloquerētur. Usque autem nullum collōquium datum est Ursulae von der Leyen, quae Ūniōnī praeest. Adhūc metuitur in Eurōpā nē praeses Americānus portōria ēdīcat in medicāmenta Eurōpaea, quod ille prōmittit sē ēdictūrum. Societātēs enim Eurōpaeae, quae medicāmenta parant, inter quās numerantur Elī Lilly et Pfīzer et AstraZeneca, epistolam Ursulae von der Leyen mīsērunt, quā mīnābantur, portōriīs Americānīs auctīs, ad Americam, quippe ubi plus lucrī facerent, sē suāsque officīnās collātūrās, nisi rēgulae Eurōpaeae laxārentur.

It's time for a celebration - the tenth anniversary story that wasn't actually broadcast anywhere near the tenth anniversary. A three Doctor story in which one Doctor barely features. And a big old event that is rendered on what seems like a budget of fourpence. But it's The Three Doctors: a landmark event, chosen by voice artiste, podcaster and long term fan Siobhan Gallichan. This has never been one of your host's favourite stories, but can he conjure happiness in what has hitherto been a pretty barren landscape? This podcast was recorded before the sudden and unexpected death of Siobhan Gallichan in December 2024. We will remember her with affection always.  #doctorwho #doctorwhoreaction #doctorwhocommentary #doctorwhocomedian #tobyhadoke #doctorwhofacts #positivedoctorwho #classicdoctorwho Please support these podcasts on Patreon, where you will get advance releases, exclusive content (including a patron-only podcast - Far Too Much Information), regular AMAs and more.

In February 2025, the EU Commission proposed the first Omnibus Package of sustainability rules, with the aim of simplifying and reducing EU sustainability reporting requirements. But did it work? Has the outcome been "good" or "bad"? And what are these new rules set to do to the future of sustainable finance in the EU? Listen to this episode of ESG now to find out!NOTE: The first 12:10 of this episode provides a background of what the Omnibus proposal actually proposes.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're unpacking new proposals to simplify sustainability reporting in Europe.  Released in February 2025, the European Commission's Omnibus Simplification Package would drastically reduce the number of companies subject to corporate sustainability reporting requirements in a bid to slash red tape, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The proposals include measures to simplify the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) and the EU Taxonomy.   If adopted, the proposals could alter the sustainability reporting landscape for companies doing business in the EU. We speak to Marc Rotter, counsel at law firm Ropes & Gray, who explains why the timeline for the legislative process remains uncertain and could last several months.   We talk to Andreas Rasche, Professor of Business in Society at the Centre for Sustainability at Copenhagen Business School, who explains how the proposals could change investor access to data.  “For investors that, at the end of the day, means less data by less companies. And I think it should be a legitimate concern to investors as it limits access to comparable and also reliable ESG data,” Andreas says of the proposals.  And we hear from Aleksandra Palinska, Executive Director of Eurosif, a European forum that promotes sustainable investment.  This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1, a part of S&P Global.   Copyright ©2025 by S&P Global   DISCLAIMER   By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.
