Lobbying Governance

Domino’s Pizza outlines a clear internal structure for overseeing its lobbying and broader public-policy engagement: it states that activities are conducted “under the direction of appropriate senior management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s General Counsel, with oversight by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.” The disclosure explains that the Board committee “will review corporate political giving and public policy expenditures on at least an annual basis as designed to ensure alignment with this Policy and the Company’s values,” and that “the Company… reviews its involvement with trade associations and other organizations on an ongoing basis.” The Committee also “will periodically review this Policy and will be responsible for any changes or updates that are submitted to the Board for approval.” Together, these statements reveal concrete mechanisms—annual reviews, ongoing monitoring of trade-association memberships, and formal Board-level oversight—that indicate a moderate governance process for aligning both direct and indirect lobbying with company policy. However, the disclosure does not reference climate-specific lobbying criteria, monitoring methodologies, or the publication of any lobbying-alignment report, leaving the depth and climate focus of these governance practices unclear.
