Суть раскрытия

This disclosure asks an organisation to explain how it manages political influence and lobbying in practice. In plain terms, it is about whether the organisation has a clear approach to engaging with policymakers, trade bodies, and other political actors, and whether that approach is applied consistently rather than only in a few visible locations or through a single team.

The practical focus is on the organisation’s full footprint: the policies, controls, oversight, and reporting that cover lobbying and political engagement across the business, not just flagship sites or headquarters. It should be clear who is responsible, what activities are covered, and how the organisation makes sure its approach is followed wherever such engagement happens.

Как это подготовить

Set the reporting boundary first, then decide which contribution items fall inside it. Make sure you can separate the total amount from the country breakdown and the beneficiary category for each item you include.
Agree the classification rules before you start collecting data. Use the same internal definitions for the subject matter covered, the role held by the people involved, and how each item connects to the relevant impacts or risks.
Gather support for every reported item from source records. Keep the evidence needed to show the total figure, the country split, the beneficiary type, the topic, the position, the link to the related impacts or risks, the named individuals, their earlier roles, and the relevant time period.
Compile the disclosure in a way that matches the required fields. Present the numeric total and the related narrative details clearly, and make sure the wording is consistent across the full set of entries.
Record anything you have left out or adjusted, and explain why. If you have changed a classification, a grouping, or a time reference, note that change so the reader can understand the basis used.
Check the final draft against the official source before sign-off. Confirm that every required item is covered, the figures and descriptions align with the underlying records, and no required detail has been missed or misstated.

Запросить данные

Request the political contributions and lobbying register

Переведите раскрытие на язык внутреннего бизнес-вопроса, а затем адаптируйте его под терминологию вашей организации.

What payments, support, or advocacy activity did we record in the period, who or what did they relate to, and how do they connect to our material sustainability issues?

Use your organisation’s own terms first, then map them to the reporting fields. For example, if you track this through a gifts and hospitality log, public affairs tracker, government relations register, or policy engagement file, ask for that source rather than using framework labels in the first message.

Слабый запрос

Please provide the ESRS G1-5 political influence and lobbying data, including all contributions, beneficiaries, topics, positions, IRO links, and individuals with previous roles.

Почему он не работает: It uses framework language that many teams do not track day to day, so the owner may not know which register, codes, or records to search. It also bundles several concepts without saying what source to pull, what period to cover, or how to identify the items in the organisation’s own records.

Более удачный запрос

Include the amount or value, country, recipient type, topic, position taken, link to our material issues, named individuals, any prior public office/advisory/regulator roles, and the source reference for each line.

Примечание о методике

Explain how the figures were compiled, including what counts as a contribution, how recipient types and countries were grouped, how topics and positions were matched to the related impacts, risks or opportunities, and how individuals were identified and the period used for that review.

Примечание о контексте

Set out what the numbers indicate in practice: where support was directed, which recipient groups received it, what issues were covered, how the organisation responded on those issues, and how the individual-screening process was framed.

Заявление о колебаниях

If any figures changed materially, note whether the movement came from a shift in geography, a change in recipient mix, a different set of topics or positions, or a wider or narrower review period for identifying individuals.

We checked that the named people were in post during the year and that any earlier public-sector roles we mentioned were recent enough to be relevant, with the comparison basis recorded in our working papers.An assurer may test whether the roles were actually comparable, whether the dates support the ‘recent’ link, and whether the selection of appointees was complete and unbiased.Board appointment records; CVs or biographies; HR or company secretariat files; a documented comparison note explaining why each prior public role was treated as relevant; approval papers for the final list.
We compiled the money figure from the underlying records for both cash and non-cash support, then reconciled the total to the source schedules before sign-off.An assurer may probe whether all relevant items were captured, whether indirect support was included consistently, and whether the total ties back to the source data without omissions or double counting.General ledger extracts; payment approvals; donation registers; in-kind valuation support; consolidation workbook; reconciliation to the reported total; management review evidence.
We split the reported amount by location using the country or region attached to each item in the source records, and we kept a mapping file showing how each entry was assigned.An assurer may check whether the geographic split is based on a consistent rule, whether any items were allocated to the wrong place, and whether the subtotals add up to the overall figure.Transaction-level listing with location fields; allocation rules; mapping spreadsheet; country/region subtotal reconciliation; exception log for any ambiguous cases.
We identified the recipient category from the supporting documentation for each item and used a consistent classification rule across the period.An assurer may question whether the beneficiary type was described accurately, whether the same type was used consistently for similar items, and whether any mixed or unclear recipients were handled appropriately.Recipient records; invoices or grant letters; classification guidance; review notes for borderline cases; sample trace from source document to reported category.
We prepared the narrative on public-policy engagement from the internal issue tracker and position papers, then checked that the topics we highlighted were the main ones for the period and linked them to the business issues we had already identified as important.An assurer may test whether the selected topics were truly the main ones, whether the stated positions match the underlying advocacy material, and whether the link to the company’s important risks and opportunities is supported rather than asserted.Policy tracker; lobbying or advocacy logs; position papers; issue prioritisation memo; materiality assessment or risk register cross-reference; review and approval trail.
We cross-checked the draft wording against the underlying advocacy records to make sure the positions were described consistently and that no significant topic was left out of the final summary.An assurer may look for completeness, consistency between the narrative and source records, and evidence that the draft was reviewed by the people responsible for the advocacy activity.Draft-to-source comparison mark-up; sign-off emails from policy leads; completeness checklist; meeting minutes showing review of the final wording.

Типичные пробелы в отчётности

Figures are stated without the supporting narrative, or narrative without figures.
Scope is inconsistent between the text and the numbers.
The reporting boundary is left undefined.
Material changes since the previous period are not disclosed.
Estimates and measured values are not distinguished.
Source records for the figures are not identified.

Типичные пробелы

Ошибки, которых стоит избегать при сборе данных

Wrong ownerThe request goes to the policy team or legal team instead of the business area that actually tracks donations, memberships, and advocacy activity.
Framework language usedPeople ask for data using disclosure labels rather than the organisation’s own terms, so the source team cannot map the request to its records.
Scope not fixedThe team starts collecting figures without first agreeing which entities, activities, and locations sit inside the reporting boundary.

Иллюстративные примеры

Синтетические, написаны LRA — это не выдержки из отчёта компании и не текст какого-либо стандарта.

Illustrative (synthetic) example — Consumer goods

During the year, we made external payments of **€1.8 million** in total, split across **€1.1 million in Country A** and **€0.7 million in Country B**. By recipient type, **€1.2 million** went to public bodies, **€0.4 million** to trade associations, and **€0.2 million** to community organisations.
- For the policy area covered, the payments related to product safety, packaging regulation, and responsible sourcing.
- The people involved in approving or overseeing these payments were two executive directors, one finance lead, and one compliance manager; the finance lead had previously worked in public affairs, and the compliance manager had previously worked in regulatory affairs.
- The review period for these disclosures was the 12 months ended 31 December 2025, and the figures above are internally consistent and illustrative only.

This synthetic example shows how a company might describe total external payments, split them by geography and recipient type, and then explain the policy topics, the roles of the people involved, and any relevant prior roles and time period.

Illustrative (synthetic) example — Industrial equipment

We recorded **£920,000** of external payments in the reporting year, with **£552,000 in Country C** and **£368,000 in Country D**. Of that total, **£460,000** was paid to government agencies, **£276,000** to industry bodies, and **£184,000** to local charities.
- The matters linked to these payments were workplace safety, emissions controls, and supply-chain due diligence.
- The individuals who handled approval or oversight were one board member, two senior managers, and one legal counsel; the board member had previously served in government relations, and one senior manager had previously worked in procurement.
- These disclosures cover the 2025 financial year and are presented as a fully synthetic, internally consistent example.

This synthetic example shows a different reporter using the same disclosure logic: total external payments, country split, recipient categories, the topics connected to the payments, the relevant roles, and any earlier roles held by those people.

EDP, S.A.'s 2025 Integrated Annual Report states that the company makes no direct political contributions to political parties, candidates, or campaigns (p.195). The report also mentions lobbying expenses and membership fees to lobbying associations, but the disclosure of these figures and related topics is unclear (p.195). There is no quotable evidence found regarding numeric values or detailed narrative items on political contributions or lobbying beyond this, indicating limited transparency on these aspects.

Amadeus IT Group, S.A.'s 2025 Non-Financial Report provides some related context on political influence and lobbying activities (p.205) and mentions contributions to charities and non-governmental organizations (p.215), but these references do not constitute clear or detailed disclosures. The report also includes financial figures and operational data across various geographical areas (pp.26, 62, 166, 167), though these are not explicitly linked to the disclosure in question. Notably, no direct or numeric evidence specifically addressing the disclosure was found in the report.

Your group paid a trade association fee of 120,000 in one country and 30,000 in another. The finance team can see the payments, but the sustainability draft only mentions the total.

ВHow should you present these amounts so the disclosure is usable for review?

The public affairs team says the company supported a policy paper on carbon pricing and also joined a submission on labour rules. They want the report to say only that the company 'engaged on public policy'.

A director sits on the board of a sector body that lobbies on energy policy. The draft report names the director but does not say whether the person is there in a personal capacity or because of their company role, and it gives no time period.

The legal team has a list of three senior staff who represented the company in policy meetings during the year. One joined from government six months before the reporting date, another moved from a regulator two years ago, and the third has no prior public-sector role.
