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 Council takes the final decision, and the act is published in the Official Journal.

The text, version by version
Latest Tabled for plenary → Adopted by Parliament: The adopted text replaces the committee report with the final decision, dropping all explanatory background and opinion content. see the changes →
Committee draft → Tabled for plenary: The changes add emphasis on preventing industrial decline and supporting older workers with targeted measures. The text shifts the focus of EGF support from rapid to durable reintegration in quality jobs. New calls are added to speed up the application process and ensure equal visibility of the EGF. The text adds references to energy prices, competitiveness, and reducing regulatory burdens. The other change is formal: an explanatory statement with a committee opinion is added. see the changes →
