Score 3 - Strong
Full assessment

Lion Corp discloses a well-defined internal mechanism to keep both its direct and indirect policy advocacy in line with its climate strategy. The company explains that "経å - ¶å±¤ãŒæ¥­ç•Œå›£ä½"(æ - ¥æœ¬çŸ³é¹¸æ´ - 剤工業会、ム- ラスチック推進å"議会等)の役å"¡ã¨ãªã£ã¦ãŠã‚Š...æ"¿ç­ - ç­ - 定に直接的/é - "接的にé - ¢ä¸Žã - ている," confirming that senior executives engage through trade associations while also influencing policy directly. Before any such engagement that falls outside these core associations, "本社サステナãƒ"リティ部é - €...ã«äº‹å‰å ±å'Šã™ã‚‹ãƒ«ãƒ¼ãƒ«" requires advance notification to the headquarters Sustainability Department, which then "E分ç§'会責任è€...とå"議の上、最高サステナãƒ"リティ責任è€...、またはサステナãƒ"リティ推進å"è­°ä¼šã«å ±å'Š" so that the Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO) or the Sustainability Promotion Council can "å½"該エンゲージメントとå½"社グルーム- ã®æ° - 候é - ¢é€£æˆ¦ç•¥ãŒæ•´åˆã - ているかã‚'検討・確認する." If misalignment is found, "整合だ- ã¦ã„ãªã„å ´åˆã¯ã‚¨ãƒ³ã‚²ãƒ¼ã‚¸ãƒ¡ãƒ³ãƒˆæ - ¹é‡ãƒ»å†...容の調整ã‚'行う," demonstrating an active mechanism for correcting positions. Outcomes are again escalated, as "å½"該エンゲージメントの結果は、最高サステナãƒ"リティ責任è€...、またはサステナãƒ"リティ推進å"è­°ä¼šã«å ±å'Šã•れ、...一致ã‚'再確認する." This chain of pre-approval, alignment review, and post-engagement reporting, overseen by the CSO and a dedicated sustainability committee, indicates strong governance over both direct lobbying and participation in industry bodies. The disclosures, however, do not reference a publicly available alignment audit or third-party review, nor do they detail the frequency or scope of formal reviews, so transparency is solid but not comprehensive.
