Strong | Premier Foods PLC provides a clear picture of its climate-related lobbying activities. It names two concrete UK policy processes it has engaged on—the "Deforestation Due Diligence" rules (including "Traceability requirements") and the "UK Extended Producer Responsibility reform"—and locates both within the United Kingdom, demonstrating transparency about the specific legislation under discussion. The company explains how it engages, citing "Direct engagement, and through trade association, on the design of regulation" and further noting work "through trade association to aid the design of impactful legislation," with policymakers responsible for each regulatory initiative identified as the targets of these efforts. It is also explicit about the changes it seeks, stating it "Support[s] with minor exceptions" while offering "Suggestions to improve impact and simplify administration of proposed regulations" for the deforestation rules, and aiming to "improve design for recyclability, household recycling provision and recycling infrastructure" under the producer-responsibility reform, even advancing a "vision for [an] alternate business engagement model" where it believes the draft law falls short. This combination of named policies, specified engagement routes and targets, and detailed desired outcomes reflects a strong level of transparency on the company’s climate-policy lobbying. | 3 |
