Direct Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Comment Score
Moderate Senko Group Holdings provides a solid inventory of the climate-related rules it has engaged on, naming several specific Japanese measures such as the "大気汚染防止法 (Air Pollution Control Act)", "自動車NOx・PM法 (Automobile NOx/PM Law)", the "東京都環境確保条例 (Tokyo Environmental Preservation Ordinance)", and other recycling or inflow-restriction ordinances, giving readers a clear picture of which statutes and regulations it monitors and comments on. The company also describes the main channel it uses to influence these measures, stating that "法令の改正等ある場合は、パブリックコメント制度も活用して適宜、意見を述べている"—indicating it submits views through the public-comment process—yet it stops short of identifying the particular ministries, agencies, or other officials that receive these submissions or explaining whether additional mechanisms (such as meetings or industry-association work) are employed. Finally, while the disclosure says it generally supports the listed policies “with minor exceptions” and aligns its stance with the Paris Agreement, it does not spell out the precise amendments, thresholds, or other concrete outcomes it seeks, nor does it detail the nature of any exceptions. Overall, the company is transparent about which climate policies it addresses but gives only limited insight into how it lobbies and what specific changes it tries to secure. 2
Lobbying Governance
Overall Assessment Comment Score
Limited Senko Group Holdings Co Ltd states “Yes” to having a public commitment or position statement to conduct its engagement activities “in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement,” indicating the company has pledged to align its lobbying with climate objectives. However, the company does not disclose a formal governance process for how it monitors or manages its lobbying activities, nor does it identify a specific individual or committee responsible for ensuring that its direct and indirect lobbying align with its Paris Agreement commitment. We found no evidence of any procedures for reviewing lobbying positions, engaging with trade associations to resolve conflicts, or conducting audits to verify alignment with its climate goals. 1
