Seikagaku Corp indicates a basic commitment to align its policy engagement with global climate goals, as seen in its affirmative response "Yes" to having "a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement". Beyond this declaration, the company does not disclose any mechanisms for oversight or accountability, such as naming an individual or committee responsible for reviewing lobbying, detailing a process to monitor or manage its direct lobbying efforts, or describing how it ensures its membership in trade associations is consistent with its climate objectives. We found no evidence of defined policies for aligning either direct or indirect lobbying with its climate commitments, nor any indication of audits, sign-off procedures, or corrective measures to address misalignment.

Seikagaku Corp identifies two concrete climate-policy instruments it has engaged with—the CO2 emission-reduction obligations and emissions-trading system operated by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the Kanagawa Prefecture Climate Change Countermeasure Promotion Ordinance—showing some openness about the specific regulations on its radar. Beyond naming these policies, however, the company provides no insight into how it sought to influence them; it does not describe meetings, submissions, participation through trade bodies, or any other lobbying channels, nor does it name the government officials or agencies it approached. The purpose of its engagement is framed only in broad terms such as supporting a “low-carbon society” and lowering CO2 emissions, without spelling out the concrete policy changes or quantitative targets it wants enacted. Because the disclosure stops at listing the policies and offers little about tactics or desired legislative outcomes, its overall transparency on climate lobbying remains limited.
