Tony's Open Chain impact report 2022/23

Applicable criteria The indicators need to be read and understood together with the reporting criteria. The reporting criteria used for the preparation of the TKPIs are Tony's Chocolonely reporting criteria. These criteria are included in the section ‘Cocoa-related KPIs’ of the ‘Interesting appendices’ in the Tony’s Open Chain Impact Report 2022/2023. The absence of an established practice on which to draw, to evaluate and measure non-financial information allows for different, but acceptable, measurement techniques and can affect comparability between entities, and over time. Emphasis of matter We draw attention to the disclosure in the sustainability information on the number of child labour cases included in the chapter ‘Child labor & forced labor’, paragraph ‘Child labor prevalence remains under 5%’, which explains that there are inherent circumstances that may cause the Child Labour Monitoring and Remediation System (‘CLMRS’) not to detect and report all cases of child labour. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
