Summit Materials discloses only a basic oversight role for its Governance and Sustainability Committee in relation to lobbying, stating that the committee’s charter includes "review of the Company’s policies related to political contributions and lobbying" and that it "reports to the Board of Directors on the foregoing matters at least annually." While the same committee also undertakes "oversight of Company policies and initiatives relating to the environment with respect to energy management, climate change and sustainability," the company does not disclose any specific policy, sign‐off requirement, or monitoring mechanism to ensure that its direct or indirect lobbying activities align with its climate commitments, nor does it name an individual responsible for overseeing climate‐related lobbying efforts. We found no evidence of a defined process for assessing or aligning its lobbying activities, through trade associations or otherwise, with its climate objectives, indicating only limited governance of lobbying despite broader ESG oversight.
