Let me give you an example. A senior executive of a company is given a mandate by a minister or prime minister, on the grounds that the executive knows the industry, to provide economic advice and to help them. At the same time, the executive remains the head of a major corporation. As a result, we could see government decisions aligned with the interests of this company.
In your opinion, is this executive engaged in lobbying, if the executive receives payment from the office of a minister or prime minister and provides advice?
