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

Parliament adopted a resolution on its annual control of the European Investment Bank's financial activities, covering the year 2023. The text acknowledges the Bank's performance and calls for detailed analysis of a 2.4% decrease in consolidated results, while welcoming investments in defence, energy efficiency, and social infrastructure. Parliament asks the EIB Group to enhance transparency, take more risk as a strategic necessity, and support less developed regions and vulnerable communities.

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).
