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

Parliament set out its position on the European Union's approach to corporate tax policy in a changing international environment, a report covering rules such as the global minimum tax for large multinational groups and the anti-tax-avoidance directive. Parliament adopted the text as its official position, so it now carries political weight but does not create law. The report argues that the international tax framework has become too complex and disadvantages European Union companies, and that the Union and its member states should strengthen coordination and speak with one voice in multilateral forums.

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.
