New here? How plenary voting works
- A sitting
- One day of voting in plenary. Each subject is a report, resolution, agreement or objection; they are grouped by kind of decision, and each group says what “adopted” means there.
- The ballots
- Members vote on amendments and on parts of the text first, then on the text as a whole. That final, decisive vote is the result shown at the top of each subject.
- Who voted how
- Only roll-call votes record each Member’s vote — open one for every name and the breakdown by group. A show of hands records the outcome only.
- Document & procedure
- Each subject rests on a document (a committee report, a motion, a Council or Commission text) and belongs to a procedure, the whole file that can span years.
- Group badges
- How most of a group voted: ✓ For · ✗ Against · – Abstained · ~ Split (no majority).
