Direct Lobbying Transparency

| Moderate | Dexus Industria REIT provides a reasonable amount of detail on its climate-policy lobbying. It names one specific engagement – its work with the City of Sydney to shape minimum energy-efficiency requirements for new buildings and major refurbishments – and describes the scope of that policy in enough detail for readers to identify it. The company is very clear on how it tries to influence the rule-making process, describing direct participation in workshops, submission of written feedback, follow-up meetings with city officials, and parallel advocacy through industry bodies such as the Property Council of Australia and the Shopping Centre Council of Australia. Dexus also explains what it wants to achieve: it supports refining the draft standards so they are “practical and effective,” encourages the inclusion of on-site renewables, and seeks cost-effective energy-efficiency investments without imposing additional layers of regulation. While only one policy area is cited, the mechanisms and desired outcomes are described with enough specificity to give readers a clear picture of the company’s climate-related lobbying activity. | 2 |
