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

Parliament adopted a resolution on control, transparency and traceability of performance-based instruments, which link EU payments to results rather than to reimbursed costs. The text calls for stronger oversight of such instruments, including harmonised methodologies, interoperable data systems, robust audit trails and clear correction criteria. Parliament urges the Commission to expand transparency tools, ensure full traceability of beneficiaries and strengthen safeguards for financial instruments. It also insists on a greater role for Parliament in the governance of these instruments.

Part of the sitting of Tuesday, 28 April 2026. The vote was taken on Report A-10-2026-0022 in procedure 2025/2032.

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).
