Direct Lobbying Transparency

Overall Assessment	Comment	Score
Moderate	International Distribution Services PLC offers a clear overview of the policy areas it engages on and the ways it interacts with policymakers but does not specify the outcomes it seeks. The company reports on engagement with consultations on “proposed air quality measures,” “hydrogen power,” “waste,” “biodiversity,” “zero emissions vehicles,” and the “net zero transition,” and identifies specific regulatory schemes such as the Ultra-Low Emission Zone in London and Clean or Zero Emission Air Zones in other towns and cities. It details its lobbying approach, noting that it “responds to consultations from local government, central government and the devolved administrations” and “hosts visits by elected and non-elected stakeholders” to discuss policy options. However, beyond a general intention to accelerate the net zero transition and align with the Paris Agreement, the company stops short of outlining measurable policy goals or legislative amendments it aims to secure.	2

Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Comment	Score
Limited	International Distribution Services PLC indicates that it has a "public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement," answering "Yes" to that question. However, the company does not disclose any specific processes or mechanisms—nor does it name a responsible individual or formal oversight body—for monitoring, reviewing, or ensuring alignment of its direct or indirect lobbying activities with its climate-related policy.	1
