✦ What this vote decides · AI summary, based on the text voted on

Parliament decided to waive the immunity of Petr Bystron, a Member of the European Parliament, in connection with criminal proceedings in Germany. The alleged offence involves the use of symbols of unconstitutional and terrorist organisations, and the waiver allows the German authorities to proceed with the case. Parliament found no evidence of fumus persecutionis, meaning no indication that the proceedings aim to undermine his political activity. The decision will be forwarded to the competent German authority and to Petr Bystron.

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).
