Direct Lobbying Transparency

Moderate | SKY Perfect JSAT Holdings Inc. offers a moderate level of transparency on its climate-policy lobbying. It identifies the specific Japanese legislation it engages with—the “地球温暖化対策の推進に関する法律(温対法)” and the “エネルギーの使用の合理化等に関する法律(省エネ法)”—making it clear which regulatory frameworks guide its advocacy. The company explains that it “政策担当者と適宜協働を行っている,” indicating direct collaboration with policymakers, but it does not clarify whether this takes the form of formal meetings, written submissions, or participation in industry associations, nor does it name the governmental bodies or officials it approaches. On desired outcomes, the firm states that it “例外なく支持し、対応している,” signalling unqualified support for regulations aimed at cutting greenhouse-gas emissions and improving energy efficiency and linking this stance to alignment with the Paris Agreement. While these disclosures reveal the policies involved and the company’s supportive position, the absence of detail on specific lobbying channels and targeted decision makers limits overall transparency. | 2 |
