Lobbying Governance

Britannia Industries provides evidence of a structured, if still partial, governance approach to policy engagement. It explains that "We maintain a centralized database of all trade association memberships, which includes information on the purpose of each association, our representatives, membership fees, and the benefits we receive," and that "The scope of these memberships is periodically reviewed to assess their value for our company and stakeholders and ensure they remain aligned with our strategic objectives," demonstrating an internal mechanism for monitoring and aligning indirect lobbying activities. The company further notes it "has a public commitment or position statement to conduct [its] engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement," signalling an intention to link advocacy to climate goals, and it reports that "We have not made any direct or indirect contributions to any political parties or towards lobbying or interest representations in the FY 2023-24," indicating active control over direct lobbying. Nonetheless, the disclosure does not specify any individual or board committee overseeing these processes, nor does it detail how the Paris-alignment commitment is assessed during the trade-association review, leaving the accountability structure and climate-specific alignment criteria undisclosed.
