France is delaying the rollout of a new climate change law after lawmakers were criticized for drafting a watered-down and vague bill that lacked any real ability to enforce reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.

Officials with French President Emmanuel Macron’s administration disclosed the delay on Sunday, Reuters reports. Macron has had to soften some of positions in recent months after protests broke out in Paris in response to a failed push to increase fuel taxes in support of his climate agenda.
