Bouygues SA

Bouygues SA has established governance structures that connect its European advocacy with its climate strategy, but it provides limited detail on the mechanisms for reviewing or approving its lobbying positions against climate goals. For example, "Bouygues Europe works for both Bouygues SA and its business segments ... advising them and representing them in the European institutions," and said that "Represetant of Bouygues Europe are member of the Climate Strategy Commitee at a group level," indicating that policy engagement is linked to climate oversight. The Group Climate Strategy and Biodiversity Committee "is chaired by Edward Bouygues, Deputy CEO of the Group, and brings together Sustainable Development Directors tasked with monitoring the application of the roadmap," showing a named formal body responsible for high-level climate governance. Bouygues also reports that "the Bouygues' Group supports some initiatives and organizations that could influence policy, law or regulation that may impact the climate" and confirms a "public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement?[...]Yes." However, the company does not disclose any specific policy or process for approving or auditing its direct or indirect lobbying, nor describe criteria for assessing alignment with its climate commitments or conducting regular reviews of its trade association memberships. We found no evidence of a defined climate-lobbying review procedure or a publicly available audit evaluating consistency between its advocacy activities and its climate targets.
