Score 1 - Limited
Full assessment

Howden Joinery Group PLC provides limited disclosure regarding its lobbying governance processes. The evidence states that "The Director of Communications is a member of the ESG Steering Committee and has direct oversight, along with the Chief Sustainability Officer, of all significant communications relating to climate change." While this indicates that specific individuals are responsible for overseeing climate-related communications, there is no explicit mention of mechanisms, monitoring processes, or alignment strategies for lobbying activities, whether direct or indirect. Furthermore, the evidence does not describe how lobbying efforts are reviewed or managed to ensure alignment with climate goals, nor does it address trade or industry association lobbying alignment. This suggests that while there is some oversight of climate-related communications, the governance framework for lobbying activities remains undefined.

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 Europe or all companies in United Kingdom.
