Summary

This dossier concerns the 2019 discharge for the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). The amendments welcome the Authority's coordinated supervisory role and its work on the Green Deal and the Paris Agreement; they raise concern over reliance on consultants and interim staff, conflict-of-interest and revolving-door issues, proportionality, cross-financing from fees on credit rating agencies and trade repositories, and inquiries into dividend arbitrage schemes and the BaFin/FREP role in Wirecard.

In plenary, Parliament usually votes in steps: first on amendments to the text (sometimes split into parts, so Members can accept one half of a sentence and reject the other), then on the text as a whole. The “main vote” is the one that adopts or rejects the text itself. Each vote below shows exactly which step it was. How voting works →
