This decision sets the number and numerical strength of the European Parliament's interparliamentary delegations, listing each delegation and its number of Members. It also sets rules on delegation membership and bureaux, and replaces the 2019 decision.

Key points

  1. Sets the number of Members for each interparliamentary delegation, including regional groupings and multilateral assemblies.
  2. The delegation to the OACPS-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly consists of members from the Africa-EU, Caribbean-EU and Pacific-EU assemblies.
  3. Membership of delegations to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Union for the Mediterranean, Euro-Latin American Parliamentary Assembly and Euronest Parliamentary Assembly is drawn exclusively from bilateral or sub-regional delegations covered by each Assembly.
  4. Membership of the delegation for relations with the NATO Parliamentary Assembly is drawn exclusively from the Subcommittee on Security and Defence.
  5. Delegation bureaux may have up to two vice-chairs, except for multilateral assemblies where bureaux correspond to Parliament's representatives in those assemblies' bureaux.
  6. Only official delegations authorised by the Conference of Presidents may carry out activities on behalf of Parliament and represent its position.
  7. This decision replaces the decision of 17 April 2019 and enters into force on the day of adoption.
