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

Parliament adopted its position on a proposal to simplify the implementation of harmonised rules on artificial intelligence, known as the Digital Omnibus on AI. The text amends the AI Act and the EASA Basic Regulation to make implementation and enforcement simpler, effective and uniform. Parliament supports postponing the application date, with a set timeline of 2 December 2027 for Annex III systems and 2 August 2028 for Annex I systems. It also introduces targeted adjustments on AI literacy, data processing for bias detection, notified bodies, cybersecurity and sandboxes.

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).
