The Commission’s 2021 Rule of Law report
This own-initiative report addresses the Commission's 2021 Rule of Law report. Amendments debate the values in Article 2 TEU, the primacy of EU law versus national constitutions (citing rulings of Constitutional Courts in Romania and Poland), and democratic deficits in emergency measures taken during the COVID-19 pandemic; they also cover judicial independence, digitalisation of justice systems, lawyers in the EU Justice Scoreboard, and the Commission's periodic monitoring.

Plenary votes
2 roll-call votesIn 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 →
