Full assessment

Vistry Group PLC provides limited disclosure on the governance of its climate-related policy engagement. The company highlights that "We are working with the Home Builders Federation (HBF) as part of the Future Homes Task Force to address market challenges associated with The Future Homes Standard," and that "Our Head of Technical Innovation sits on the Future Homes Hub working group," illustrating its participation in key industry bodies, and notes that "We also have representatives on the HBF working group, Building Futures group, and NHBC forums." It refers to a "climate change policy" focused on the commitment to "identify and manage the risks and opportunities associated with climate change, in terms of impact on our Group as well as the impact on the homes and communities we build, including flooding and overheating," and confirms a public commitment to align engagement with the goals of the Paris Agreement ("Does your organization have 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 formal process for monitoring or reviewing these engagement activities against its climate strategy, nor does it name an individual or governance body responsible for overseeing lobbying alignment, indicating that the framework for ensuring that direct and indirect policy advocacy is systematically aligned with climate commitments is not defined.
