Direct Lobbying Transparency

| Moderate | Safaricom provides a reasonable level of detail on its climate-policy lobbying. It explicitly names the two Kenyan measures it engaged on – the “National Sustainable Waste Management Act 2022” and the associated “Extended Producer Responsibility” scheme – and situates them within its wider emissions-reduction agenda. The company also describes how it lobbied, noting that it participated in “initial discussion” sessions and “gave feedback to the ministry,” thereby revealing both the direct mechanisms used (meetings and written submissions) and the governmental target of those efforts. Finally, it is clear about what it wanted to achieve, stating its “support with no exceptions” for the legislation and explaining that its input sought to refine the EPR design “by giving feedback to the ministry on areas to focus on and the types of waste to cluster together for the EPR to be effective.” Taken together, the disclosures show moderate transparency across policies lobbied, methods used, and outcomes sought, though the company stops short of detailing a broader range of policies or lobbying channels. | 2 |
