5Objections to Commission measures·decision 5 of 11 on Tuesday, 20 January 2026
Objection under Rule 114(3) · delegated act
Delegated Regulation supplementing the review of prudential rules for the insurance and reinsurance sector (Solvency II)
Motion for a resolution
Parliament can object to technical rules the Commission adopts on its own. Against a delegated act an adopted objection is a veto; against most implementing measures (such as GMO authorisations) it is a call on the Commission to withdraw the measure, which is not legally binding.
The European Parliament voted on a resolution to object to a Commission delegated regulation that amends the Solvency II prudential rules for insurance and reinsurance, covering areas such as technical provisions, risk margin, securitisation, and crypto-assets. Parliament rejected the objection, meaning the Commission measure goes ahead as planned. The resolution argued that the Commission overstepped its mandate by bundling empowerments without justification and deviating from technical advice, but this did not succeed.
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.
