Mærsk bruger millioner på lobby i USA

A P Møller - Mærsk har i løbet af årets første seks måneder brugt 620.000 dollar - eller omkring 3,3 millioner kroner - på lobbyvirksomhed i USA. Mærsk har bl.a. forsøgt at påvirke Kongressens holdning til udenlandske investeringer i USA og sikkerhed i havnene.

I Danmark er der ingen krav om, at virksomhederne skal oplyse om, hvor mange penge de bruger på at påvirke den politiske beslutningsproces. Men sådan er det ikke i USA.

Her skal lobbyister senest 45 dage efter at de er blevet hyret, oplyse om hvem de arbejder for.

Af opgørelsen for 1. halvår fremgår det, at Mærsk også bearbejdede Kongressens holdning til jernbanedrift. Finansministeriet og Arbejdsministeriet fik også besøg af Mærsks lobbyister. Det skriver Houston Chronicles netavis.

Der foreligger ikke oplysninger om, hvad andre danske virksomheder har brugt på lobbyvirksomhed i 1. halvår.
