Module 4: Governance – CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project)

CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project) 4.1-4.2: Questions 4.1 to 4.2: Board oversight and board competency

The organisation states whether it has a board or equivalent governing body and its composition (executive, non-executive and independent directors, diversity policy); whether the board oversees each environmental issue; the positions or committees with accountability (no names), whether their responsibilities are in a policy, how often environmental issues are scheduled, the governance mechanisms into which issues are integrated (such as overseeing the transition plan, reviewing risk assessment, approving and monitoring targets and budgets) and the scope of oversight; and whether the board has competency on environmental issues and the mechanisms that maintain it (nomination criteria, director education, engaging external experts, a permanent subject-expert working group, a board member with expertise). Leadership points go to boards that consult a permanent internal expert group and engage external experts regularly.
