Direct Lobbying Transparency

Overall Assessment	Comment	Score
Strong	Taisei Corp discloses substantial detail on its climate lobbying activities. It clearly names the GX League Basic Concept, the Regional Cooperation and Low-Carbon Hydrogen Technology Demonstration Project, and the Environmentally Friendly CCS Demonstration Project as climate policies it has engaged with. It outlines its lobbying approaches by serving as a supporting company in the GX League working group and participating in the Eco-First Promotion Council with the Ministry of the Environment, although it does not detail other mechanisms such as meetings or correspondence. The company also states "we will work on to improve and solve these issues through communication with various stakeholders to influence with each other, and by lobbying the government and relevant authorities through the industry groups." Taisei articulates its desired outcomes by aiming to contribute to Japan’s 2050 carbon neutrality target and enhance industrial competitiveness through the GX League’s implementation, and expresses broader ambitions around a regionally distributed hydrogen energy society and overcoming challenges in low-carbon hydrogen deployment.	3

Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Comment	Score
Limited	Taisei Corp discloses limited information regarding its lobbying governance processes. The company mentions that it engages in lobbying activities "through the industry groups" as part of its efforts to address environmental issues. Additionally, it states that it will "regularly review our efforts on environmental issues at meetings of the Sustainability Promotion Committee, the Management Committee, the Sustainability Committee, and the Board in accordance with these Group Environmental Action Guidelines." However, there is no explicit mention of a defined governance process for ensuring alignment of lobbying activities with climate goals, nor is there evidence of specific mechanisms, oversight structures, or monitoring processes dedicated to lobbying governance. The disclosure does not provide details on how lobbying activities are managed, monitored, or aligned with the company's environmental or climate-related objectives, nor does it identify a specific individual or committee responsible for overseeing lobbying alignment.	1
