Nishimatsu Construction Co Ltd discloses very limited information on how it governs lobbying. The only relevant statement located is a questionnaire response confirming that it has “a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement?[…]Yes,” which indicates an intention that any policy engagement be consistent with Paris-aligned climate goals. However, the company’s published governance narrative is otherwise devoted to general climate-risk management, describing layers such as the “Environment Committee,” the “Sustainability Strategy Meeting,” and the “Board of Directors” that “oversee the progress report … for climate risks/opportunities,” but these passages refer to enterprise risk oversight, not to the monitoring or review of lobbying or trade-association activities. We found no evidence that the company explains processes for evaluating the alignment of either its direct advocacy or its memberships in industry bodies, nor does it name an individual or committee responsible specifically for lobbying alignment. As a result, the disclosure demonstrates only a high-level commitment without detailing how that commitment is operationalised or overseen, indicating very limited governance of climate-related lobbying activities.
