Limited | Jamco Corp offers a limited but concrete picture of its climate-policy lobbying. It identifies a single, specific forum—the “航空機運航分野におけるCO2削減に関する検討会,” an aviation-sector CO2-reduction investigation committee convened by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism’s Aviation Bureau—and notes that it has participated in this committee since May 2021. This disclosure makes clear the primary mechanism (committee participation) and names the target government body, the 国土交通省航空局安全部, yet provides no further detail on other methods such as meetings, letters, or coalition work. No additional climate policies or regulations are listed, so the scope of policies lobbied remains narrow. The company does articulate the outcomes it seeks, including “accelerating CO2 emissions reduction in the aviation sector,” “promoting the adoption of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF),” introducing new technologies, improving air-traffic-control operations, and contributing to a “2050年カーボンニュートラル, 脱炭素社会の実現.” While these statements reveal Jamco’s policy preferences, they are framed as broad objectives rather than specific legislative changes, and the disclosure lacks quantitative targets or detailed rationales. Consequently, the company provides some insight into its climate-related lobbying, but important details on the breadth of its policy engagement and its day-to-day lobbying tactics are still missing. | 1 |
