I'd be tempted to treat 'government' as a single box; few people will care if it's DWP, DECC or any other acronym getting lobbied; so I imagine a treemap with red bars of 'Power companies', 'Transport Operators', etc; then drilling down to individual companies within that dataset. Beyond that level you could further split by either department or reason for meeting, potentially. Also, I can't see where I can download the raw data from... I'd expect 'database' in "This Who's Lobbying database available under the Open Database License (ODbL)." to be a link.
