Foco de la divulgación

This provision is about making sure emissions information is dependable enough to be checked and trusted. In practice, an organisation should report emissions data in a way that is accurate, traceable and capable of being verified, rather than relying on rough estimates or selectively presented figures. The emphasis is on the quality of the data itself and the ability to support it with evidence.

The practical focus is therefore on coverage and consistency across the organisation’s relevant activities, not just a few prominent sites or operations. An organisation should think about whether its reporting captures the full scope it is meant to cover, uses a consistent approach across locations and business units, and can be backed up if reviewed or challenged.

Cómo prepararlo

Set the reporting boundary first: decide which parts of the business, sites, activities and data sources are in scope for this disclosure, and keep that scope consistent for the period you are reporting.
Define the items you will treat as reportable for each required point, using a clear internal rule for what counts as the assurance provider, the validation process, and the verification status you will state.
Gather the supporting records that show how each figure or statement was checked, including working papers, sign-offs, review notes, system outputs or other source material that supports the reported information.
Prepare the final disclosure content in a usable form, whether that is a short narrative or a set of figures, and make sure it matches the evidence you have assembled.
Record any exclusions, restatements or methodology changes that affect the numbers or wording, so a reviewer can see what was left out and why the current version differs from earlier information.
Before submission, compare the draft against the official source and confirm that the wording, scope and evidence trail still align with the legal requirement and your internal records.

Solicitar los datos

Request emissions data checks and verification evidence

Traduzca la divulgación a una pregunta de negocio interna y adáptela después al lenguaje propio de su organización.

How were the emissions figures checked, who reviewed them, and what evidence shows whether they were reviewed internally or by an outside party?

Use your organisation’s own names for the emissions dataset, checking steps, review sign-off and assurance arrangements first, then map them to this request. Keep the wording in your internal language rather than using framework terms unless that is how your team already speaks.

Solicitud débil

Please provide the emissions data verification evidence for the disclosure.

Por qué falla: This uses framework language only and does not tell the owner which file, checks, reviewer, period, or boundary to pull. It is too vague to trace the figures back to the source records or to show how the data was checked.

Solicitud mejor

Please send the [period] emissions dataset for [site / business unit], the checks performed on it, the reviewer or approver, and whether the figures were reviewed in-house or by an outside party. Include the file name, source system, review notes, and any corrections or exceptions so we can trace the numbers back to source records. This is a possible LRA training template only; please adapt it to your organisation and check the official source before sign-off.

Paquete de evidencia que preparar

Carencias habituales en los informes

The information is presented without a date or as-at point.
The scope or boundary of the statement is left undefined.
Key terms are used inconsistently across the report.
Material changes since the previous period are not disclosed.
Assertions are made without supporting detail or a source record.
Boilerplate is used that does not actually answer what is asked.

Carencias habituales

Errores que evitar al recopilar los datos

Wrong ownerChasing the wrong team for the emissions file means the person who knows the numbers, checks, or review route never gets asked.
Framework language instead of site termsAsking for the data using disclosure labels rather than the organisation’s own process names leaves staff unsure which report, tracker, or control sheet you mean.
No boundary setStarting collection without saying which sites, activities, or business units are in scope leads to a mixed dataset that cannot be traced back cleanly.

Dónde suele hacer falta juicio profesional

Acquisition or disposal during the reporting periodSet a clear cut-off for when sites or activities enter or leave the emissions boundary, then explain the date used and how the change affected the figures.
Different country rules for the same activityWhere local definitions or measurement practices vary, use one organisation-wide approach for reporting and note any country-level differences that were translated into that approach.
Operations close to the boundaryDecide in advance how to treat shared services, leased assets, contractors, or other borderline activities, and disclose the rule used to include or exclude them.

Illustrative (synthetic) example — Manufacturing

We completed an external review of our reported climate figures for the year, using an independent assurance provider to test the underlying records and calculations. - Our data checks combined automated validation, manual review of source files, and follow-up queries where figures did not reconcile on first pass. - The final status was external verification, with the reviewer confirming the dataset was suitable for publication after resolving the exceptions we identified.

Illustrates how a company can describe who reviewed the information, how the numbers were checked, and whether the review was done internally or by an outside party. The wording is intentionally generic and synthetic.

Illustrative (synthetic) example — Financial services

We carried out an internal verification cycle for our sustainability metrics before release, with our own control team acting as the assurance provider for this round. - The validation process included cross-checking ledger extracts against source systems, sampling supporting documents, and escalating mismatches for correction before sign-off. - The verification outcome was internal, meaning the company relied on its in-house review rather than an external reviewer for this reporting cycle.

Illustrates the same three datapoints from a different sector, using an in-house review rather than an outside one. The example is fictional and designed only for training.

Informes reales publicados
Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank (ADCB)
None · United Arab Emirates · 2024
Abrir el informe →
Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank’s 2024 ESG Report includes evidence of external assurance for its Greenhouse Gas (GHG) metrics, with Deloitte providing assurance on the preparation of these metrics as detailed on page 3. The report also references limited assurance of financed emissions measurement (p.34) and details on Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions assurance (p.103). However, the report does not clearly disclose its data validation process (p.3) nor specify whether the verification status is internal or external, as no explicit statement was found.
First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB)
None · United Arab Emirates · 2024
Abrir el informe →
First Abu Dhabi Bank’s ESG Report 2024 provides detailed data on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including gross location-based Scope 2 emissions (p.61) and GHG emissions intensity ratios covering Scope 1, 2, and 3 (p.62). The report references assurance over GHG emissions across multiple scopes and categories (p.80), and discusses ongoing efforts to refine data collection and GHG accounting methodologies (p.20). However, the report does not clearly disclose the assurance provider (not found) or explicitly detail the data validation process and verification status, with only unclear references to internal and external reporting processes (p.77).
Aldar Properties
None · United Arab Emirates · 2024
Abrir el informe →
Aldar Properties’ Sustainability Report 2024 provides detailed data on its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory, consolidating emissions across all subsidiaries (p.73) and breaking down emissions by source and business segment for 2023 and 2024 (p.89). The report also references the use of historical data, surveys, and certifications to estimate scope 1 and scope 2 emissions (p.82), and highlights a 73.1% reduction in scope 3 GHG emissions per m2 for new buildings (p.12). However, the report does not include any information on the assurance provider, data validation process, or verification status, leaving these aspects unclear.

Escenarios para trabajar

A group finance team has compiled the year-end emissions figures from three sites. One site used a spreadsheet check by the local sustainability lead, while the other two were reviewed by an outside verifier; the draft note only says the numbers were 'checked'.

PWhat should the preparer do before sign-off so the reader can tell how the figures were checked and by whom?
Mostrar la respuesta modelo →

A manufacturing business has emissions data from meters, invoices and estimates. The team has a reconciliation file, but one plant’s estimate was not linked back to source records, and the draft disclosure still presents all figures as fully verified.

PShould the preparer present the whole dataset as equally reliable, or separate the parts that have stronger support from those that do not?
Mostrar la respuesta modelo →

A logistics company has had its emissions figures reviewed by an external specialist, but the draft report only names the specialist and gives no explanation of what was tested. The internal team also ran a data-quality review, but that is not mentioned.

PWhat information should be included so the disclosure shows both the review route and the process used to test the data?
Mostrar la respuesta modelo →

A retail group has updated its emissions figures after finding an error in one store’s activity data. The revised numbers are correct, but the draft note does not explain that the figures were reworked after validation and still does not say whether the final set was internally reviewed or externally checked.

PHow should the preparer handle the final disclosure so it is clear the data can be trusted and the review status is not ambiguous?
