Суть раскрытия
This disclosure asks an organisation to explain the actions it is taking, and the resources it is using, in relation to the sustainability matters it has identified as material. In practice, the report should show what is being done, where it is being done, and what support is being put behind it, rather than simply listing policies or intentions.
The practical focus is on giving a clear picture of coverage and effort across the business. That means explaining whether actions apply across the whole organisation, selected business units, specific sites, or parts of the value chain, and whether the resources involved are limited to a few flagship initiatives or spread more broadly. The aim is to help readers understand how seriously the material matters are being addressed in day-to-day operations.

Подготовка
Ключевая информация для подготовки
| Поле подготовки | Что зафиксировать | Подсказка по доказательствам | Ответственный |
|---|---|---|---|
| Action name | The short name used internally for the action being described, so readers can identify which initiative the disclosure refers to. | Project register, programme charter, board paper, or internal initiative tracker. | Sustainability / programme management |
| Action coverage | Which part of the business, asset base, geography, or activity the action applies to, stated in the same way the organisation tracks it internally. | Project scope note, business-unit plan, asset list, or operational boundary document. | Sustainability / business owner |
| Action timing | The period or dates for the action, including when it started, when it is expected to finish, or the reporting window it covers. | Project timeline, milestone plan, implementation schedule, or status report. | Programme management |
| Completed steps | What has already been done under the action, in enough detail to show the main measures already carried out. | Progress report, workstream update, implementation log, or meeting minutes. | Programme management / operational lead |
| Next steps | The actions still to come, including the main tasks the organisation intends to carry out next. | Action plan, roadmap, project plan, or approved work programme. | Programme management |
| Expected results | The outcomes the organisation expects the action to deliver, stated in practical terms and linked to the initiative. | Business case, benefits plan, target-setting paper, or project benefits tracker. | Sustainability / programme management |
| Resource type | The kinds of resources being used or allocated, such as money, staff time, equipment, services, or other support. | Budget note, resourcing plan, procurement record, staffing plan, or project budget. | Finance / programme management |
| This year spend | The amount of resources allocated in the current reporting year for the action, using the organisation’s reporting currency and period. | Current-year budget, actuals report, cost centre extract, or management accounts. | Finance |
| Future spend range | The expected allocation for later periods, shown as a range rather than a single figure where that is how the organisation plans it. | Medium-term plan, pipeline budget, forecast range, or investment case. | Finance / strategy |
| Linked accounts lines | The financial statement line items that connect to the resources for this action, using the same account or line naming as the finance records. | Trial balance, chart of accounts mapping, annual report note, or financial statement cross-reference. | Finance / financial reporting |
| Funding conditions | Any conditions, approvals, external support, or other dependencies that the funding relies on before the resources can be used. | Funding agreement, approval memo, grant terms, investment committee paper, or dependency log. | Finance / treasury / programme management |
| Other support used | Any non-cash support used for the action, such as donated services, in-kind help, seconded staff, or equipment provided without charge. | In-kind support log, HR secondment record, supplier agreement, or internal contribution tracker. | Programme management / finance |
Как это подготовить
Запросить данные
Request the action plan and resource data from Finance / FP&A
Переведите раскрытие на язык внутреннего бизнес-вопроса, а затем адаптируйте его под терминологию вашей организации.
What actions are being taken or planned on the material sustainability topics, and what resources are being committed now and next year to support them?
Use your organisation’s own planning and budgeting language first, then map it to the sustainability reporting categories. For example, ask for project names, workstreams, cost centres, capex/opex, headcount, and funding notes in the terms your teams already use. Check the official source before sign-off.
Слабый запрос
Please provide the ESRS 2:GDR-A actions and resources disclosure data for all material sustainability matters, including the action name, scope, timeframe, actions taken, planned actions, expected outcomes, type of resources, current-year allocation, future allocation range, related financial statement line items, funding dependencies, and non-financial resources.
Почему он не работает: It uses framework language that many teams do not use day to day, so the owner may not know which plans, budgets, or trackers to pull from. It also bundles too many concepts without telling them how to express the information in their own operational terms, which makes the request harder to action and harder to verify.
Более удачный запрос
Please send the current and planned initiatives for [business area / topic] for [reporting period], using your normal project, budget, and forecast terms. For each initiative, include what it covers, what has already been done, what is planned next, the expected result, the resource type, this year’s allocation, the expected range for next year, any linked finance lines, any funding assumptions, and any non-cash support. Attach the budget extract, forecast, or project summary you used.

|---|---|---|
| We prepared the coverage figure from the underlying action log, then checked that each item included what was done in the year, what is still to come, and the timing attached to each part. | An assurer may test whether the figure mixes completed work with future plans, or whether dates and status labels were applied consistently across the disclosed actions. | Action register or tracker; project plans and milestone dates; internal review notes showing how in-year and future items were separated; sign-off pack used before publication. |
| We grouped the environmental actions using our chosen avoid-reduce-restore style logic, and kept a short mapping note showing why each item sat in its category. | An assurer may probe whether the grouping was applied consistently, whether any item was placed in the wrong bucket, or whether the basis for classification was documented. | Classification matrix or mapping table; working papers showing the rationale for each action; reviewer comments and resolution notes; version history of the draft disclosure. |
| We limited the disclosed actions to the scope we had agreed for the report, and recorded the boundary decisions where an activity was included, excluded, or only partly covered. | An assurer may ask whether the scope was set too narrowly or too broadly, and whether exclusions were deliberate, approved, and traceable. | Scope memo; boundary and inclusion/exclusion log; management approvals; links between the disclosed actions and the underlying programme list. |
| We stated whether each action was delivered by us alone or together with other parties, and kept evidence of the roles each party played. | An assurer may check whether collaboration claims are supported, whether partner involvement was overstated, or whether responsibility was unclear. | Partnership agreements, joint project plans, emails or meeting minutes showing shared delivery, and internal ownership records for each action. |
| We described the actions in a way that separates what happened this year from what is planned later, and we checked that the timeframes were internally consistent across the narrative and tables. | An assurer may test whether the timing is coherent, whether future milestones are realistic, and whether the same dates appear consistently in all parts of the disclosure. | Programme timetable; board or committee papers approving the plan; draft-to-final comparison; cross-check of dates against the main report tables. |
| We linked each action to the policy aim it is meant to support, and kept a note explaining the expected result we were relying on. | An assurer may probe whether the stated contribution is too vague, whether the expected result is plausible, and whether the link to the policy aim is evidenced rather than asserted. | Policy documents; business case or project rationale; outcome statements; internal approval papers showing the intended contribution. |

Синтетические, написаны LRA — это не выдержки из отчёта компании и не текст какого-либо стандарта.
During the year, we ran a plant-efficiency programme across our two main sites, with work focused on energy use, water handling and waste reduction; the plan runs from Q2 2026 to Q4 2028 and is expected to cut operating emissions and disposal costs while improving process reliability.
- We spent 12.0 million in the current year, made up of 9.0 million cash spend and 3.0 million staff time and internal support; the cash element sat mainly in property, plant and equipment additions and operating expenses, while the people element was not separately capitalised.
- For the next three years, we expect to commit between 28.0 million and 34.0 million in total, with 18.0 million to 22.0 million likely to be capital spend and 10.0 million to 12.0 million likely to be operating spend; this is partly dependent on grant support of up to 6.0 million, and we also rely on internal engineering teams and existing production data systems rather than any external non-financial support.
Synthetic, internally consistent example for practitioner review only.
We are carrying out a store-network waste and packaging redesign across 180 outlets, with the work scheduled from January 2026 to December 2027 and aimed at lowering material use, reducing disposal charges and improving customer-facing sorting systems.
- In the current year, we allocated 4.8 million, comprising 3.6 million for supplier and fit-out costs and 1.2 million for internal project teams; the spend was recognised mainly through operating costs, with a smaller share in leasehold improvements.
- Over the next two years, we expect to allocate between 9.5 million and 11.0 million in total, including 6.5 million to 7.5 million of cash spend and 3.0 million to 3.5 million of internal labour and systems work; delivery depends in part on a possible local authority rebate of up to 1.5 million, and we are also using store manager training and our existing inventory platform as non-financial inputs.

Сценарии для разбора
A preparer is drafting the section for a material water-risk topic. The team has one project already underway, one project approved for next year, and a target that the business expects to reach if both go ahead.
A finance team has agreed this year’s spend on a biodiversity programme, but the sustainability team also wants to mention a possible increase in funding next year if a grant is approved. The draft currently gives only one total figure and no explanation of what it covers.
A company has launched a supplier-training programme to reduce labour-rights risks. The draft says the programme is ‘under way’ and lists a budget, but it does not say whether the budget is staff time, cash, software, or external support, and it does not mention any future funding uncertainty.
A preparer is combining several climate-related measures into one paragraph because they all sit under the same material topic. One measure has already started, one is approved but not yet started, and one is only a proposal with no funding decision. The paragraph also mentions a target outcome but does not tie it to each measure.

FAQ
Вопросы, на которые отвечает эта страница
Start with the plain-language explainer, then work through the datapoints to prepare, the step-by-step preparation section, and the draft-output ideas. The page is designed to help you turn source data into a first draft, not to replace your own reporting judgement.
The page lists the datapoints to prepare: action name, coverage, timing, completed steps, next steps, expected results, resource type, this year spend, future spend range, linked accounts lines, funding conditions, and other support used. Use that list as your collection checklist so you can build the disclosure without missing key fields.
Use the page’s step-by-step preparation guidance to decide what action or actions you are describing and which datapoints apply to each one. Keep the scope consistent across the narrative, the table, and the evidence pack so the draft reads as one coherent disclosure.
The page is useful for assigning ownership across sustainability, HR, finance, or other data owners because it shows which datapoints need to be gathered and evidenced. In practice, each field should have a named owner who can confirm the source and explain any judgement used.
The page includes an evidence pack with five items and six assurance claims to verify, so you can assemble support around the claim, the risk, and the evidence. Use those sections to make sure the pack is complete enough for a reviewer to trace the numbers and narrative back to source material.
The page says there are six assurance claims to verify, organised around claim, risk, and evidence. Use that structure to test whether each reported point is supported, whether there is a realistic risk of error, and whether the evidence pack answers it clearly.
The page lists common reporting gaps and mistakes, which are there to help you spot weak drafting, missing data, or inconsistent treatment before sign-off. A practical use is to compare your draft against those gaps and fix anything that would make the disclosure harder to assure.
The Download Centre includes a Prep & Assurance workbook in .xlsx format, which is intended to help you organise the disclosure work and evidence. Use it alongside the page’s datapoint list and assurance sections to track what is complete, what is missing, and what still needs review.
The printable Library Card in PDF format is a quick reference version of the page content. It is useful for workshops, data-owner check-ins, or assurance preparation when you want the key fields and checks in a compact format.
The page’s draft-output section gives visualisation ideas, narrative starters, and a content-index line to help you shape the final write-up. Use those prompts to convert the collected datapoints into a clear draft, then check it against the example disclosures for format and completeness.
