Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Limited	Daiseki Co Ltd’s disclosures focus on its general compliance framework rather than any dedicated lobbying governance process. The company highlights that it “established a Compliance Committee in May 2002” chaired by its President Executive officer, which works on “grasping the status of company-wide compliance systems” and analyzing department-level risks, and that it operates a “compliance consultation counter” and “whistleblowing system” to manage internal reports confidentially. It also confirms it has a “public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.” Beyond this commitment, however, we found no evidence of specific mechanisms for governing or monitoring its lobbying activities, whether direct or through trade associations, no process for ensuring alignment of advocacy with its climate policy, and no named individual or formal body responsible for lobbying oversight.

Lobbying Transparency

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Limited	Daiseki Co. Ltd. offers only a brief window into its climate-related lobbying. It notes that it participates in the GX League and that this forum discusses issues such as a voluntary emissions-trading scheme, signalling some engagement with carbon-market policy, but it does not name any specific bills, regulations or jurisdictions beyond this broad reference. The company likewise identifies just one indirect mechanism—its membership in the GX League—without explaining how it engages (for example, through written submissions, meetings or consultations) or which government bodies or officials it seeks to influence. Finally, its stated intention is limited to broad ambitions like supporting carbon neutrality and the circular economy; it does not spell out the concrete policy changes, targets or amendments it hopes to secure. Taken together, these gaps mean the company remains largely non-transparent about the substance, methods and objectives of its climate lobbying.	D
