APA Group

ISIN: AU0000001877 | Australia | Asia-Pacific
Score 2 - Moderate
Full assessment

APA Group demonstrates a structured approach to governing its indirect climate-related advocacy by reviewing its participation in trade associations annually against defined criteria, noting that "we review our industry memberships annually against APA's membership criteria. These cover a range of elements, including climate-related matters, and we review a membership where it no longer meets these criteria," and that "decisions about joining a new association are managed by APA's Sustainability and Corporate Affairs division." This indicates a mechanism to align its indirect lobbying with its climate change commitments. However, the company does not disclose any process for aligning direct lobbying with its climate policy, nor does it identify a named executive or committee responsible specifically for overseeing lobbying alignment, and the governance details provided focus on climate-policy approval and implementation rather than explicit lobbying oversight.

This assessment is part of the Lobbying Governance Index, covering 8,500 companies scored on whether they have processes to oversee their climate lobbying. See all companies in Asia-Pacific or all companies in Australia.
