The company provides virtually no transparency around its climate-related lobbying. Beyond noting its attendance at COP28 and participation in a panel discussion, it does not identify any climate policy, law or regulation it tried to influence, describe any mechanisms it used to reach decision-makers, name the government bodies or officials it engaged, or explain what policy changes it was seeking. Without these basic details, stakeholders cannot see whether the company undertakes climate lobbying at all, let alone understand its positions or objectives.

Aitken Spence PLC does not disclose any governance process for lobbying or climate-related policy engagement; the disclosures focus on general sustainability oversight. The evidence states that "The Board Directors of Aitken Spence PLC, the Group Supervisory Board, the Group’s Sustainability Council, and the Management Council are the governing bodies setting guidelines and direction on our commitments to sustainability and will also review the performance of the Group’s companies" and that "Each business segment is expected to take leadership in implementing action through necessary frameworks, standard operating procedures and practices that meet the social, environmental, and economic governance priorities," yet there is no reference to how lobbying activities are overseen, aligned with climate policy, or monitored. We found no evidence of any committee or named individual responsible for lobbying oversight, nor any process to review or manage direct or indirect lobbying or ensure alignment with climate objectives.
