2025/2057(INI) Own-initiative report First reading

EU strategy for the rights of persons with disabilities post-2024

Parliament sets out its own position on a topic. The resolution is not binding but signals what Parliament wants.

Where it stands: Parliament adopted the text on 27 November 2025. This is its final position on the matter.

  1. Referred to committee 13 March 2025
  2. Committee work Report adopted 23 October 2025
  3. Tabled for plenary 30 October 2025
  4. Plenary vote Adopted 27 November 2025
  5. Parliament’s position Final
How a file moves through Parliament

A file is referred to one lead committee (others may give an opinion). Its rapporteur writes a draft report, committee members table amendments, and the committee votes to adopt the report. The report is then tabled for all MEPs; political groups can table further amendments, which are voted on before the final vote in plenary. The adopted resolution is Parliament’s final position; it is not itself law.
