Woolworths Group provides only a high-level picture of its climate-related lobbying. It indicates that it advocates for government action on issues such as "national harmonisation of single-use plastic regulation" and participates in collective initiatives like the Soft Plastics Taskforce and the Climate Leaders Coalition, but it does not name any specific bills, regulations or jurisdictions it has tried to influence. The company explains that it lobbies through methods such as direct advocacy and industry collaborations, yet no particular government departments, legislators or regulatory agencies are identified, so the targets of these efforts remain unclear. Likewise, it voices broad ambitions—reducing food waste and achieving consistent national rules on single-use plastics—without setting out concrete legislative changes, amendments or quantified policy goals it is pursuing. Consequently, while Woolworths acknowledges that it engages in policy advocacy and provides examples of thematic focus areas and collaborative mechanisms, the disclosure lacks the detail needed to understand which policies it has influenced, how it engages specific policymakers, and the precise outcomes it seeks.
