Entain PLC

As per our Net Zero by 2035 commitment, Entain supports the Paris Agreement and public policies to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5°C by 2050.

As a large global betting and gaming company, we conduct regulatory and policy engagement in the jurisdictions where we operate or are considering obtaining a license. These engagements are generally related to regulation and customer protection. Across all jurisdictions where we operate, we do not specifically lobby on climate-related issues, nor are we members of any trade associations that focus on this topic.

As such, we do not lobby against the implementation of any climate-related policies. Should any lobbying activities related to climate policy be conducted in any jurisdiction where we operate, either directly or through trade associations we work with, we will take steps to ensure these align with our own Net Zero objectives and the Paris Agreement. If there are misalignments, we will report this to Entain's board-level Sustainability and Compliance Committee to address this.

Describe the process(es) your organization has in place to ensure that your engagement activities are consistent with your overall climate change strategy[…]Given that a majority of our work with trade associations focusses on safer gambling, climate change is not an immediate priority for these organisations. As such, there is only minimal work being done by the trade associations where we hold membership. As such, our approach to ensuring trade organisations we are part of have a position aligned with our own climate goals is done on an ad hoc basis.

Describe the process(es) your organization has in place to ensure that your external engagement activities are consistent with your climate commitments and/or climate transition plan?[…]We do not conduct any lobbying around climate related issues, not engage with associations lobbying on climate related issues

Does your organization have a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement?[…]No, but we plan to have one in the next two years
