The CSR Report is produced and reviewed by relevant divisions with clear responsibility assignments in accordance with the internally established procedures. We consider, therefore, the external assurance particularly for non-financial disclosure of the Company is not necessary at this moment. From the fiscal year 2016 on, in the meantime, the data of greenhouse gas emissions are reported to CDP. A part of the data reported in the previous fiscal year are examined by Japan Quality Assurance Organization, and its assurance report received in November is attached to the annual report to CDP, of which we reconfirm the adoption in the feedback report from CDP.
