Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
None	Treasury Wine Estates provides no evidence of any governance process for its lobbying activities, particularly in relation to climate policy. The company explicitly confirms, "we do not plan to have one in the next two years" in response to whether it has "a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement." We found no evidence of any oversight structure, monitoring mechanism, or designated individual or body tasked with reviewing or aligning lobbying activities, and no policy to ensure its direct or indirect lobbying is aligned with its climate objectives.

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Limited	Treasury Wine Estates provides only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. It acknowledges engaging on broad policy areas—such as carbon-pricing mechanisms, water security, regulatory reviews, and trade and tax reform—but it does not identify the actual bills, regulations, or formal consultations it has tried to influence, leaving individual policies unnamed. The company indicates that it works through alcohol industry associations, participates in policy working groups, and meets with ministers, advisers, and local members of parliament, yet it does not specify the format or frequency of these contacts or name the particular offices or jurisdictions targeted. Likewise, its stated objectives remain high-level: it refers generally to supporting favourable trade negotiations, regulatory reforms, and excise-duty changes without setting out the precise policy amendments or quantitative targets it seeks. As a result, the disclosures outline that some lobbying occurs but offer scant detail on which climate policies are addressed, how influence is exerted, or what concrete outcomes the company is pursuing.
