Where it stands: Parliament adopted the text on 12 February 2026. This is its final position on the matter.

  1. Tabled for plenary 11 February 2026
  2. Plenary vote Adopted 12 February 2026
  3. 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.
