The sloppy: 15 of the 29 entries in which Esther Herranz García names an organisation listed in the EU Transparency Register leave out its Register ID - 52%, against 15% across the Parliament. The “Unlinked but matchable” list further down has 16 unlinked entries: these 15, and 1 more whose match is looser or that the label does not count. How the label is counted.

As of 8 November 2026, Esther Herranz García (EPP, Spain) has declared 36 lobby meetings this term - rank 450 of 720 MEPs by declared meetings, a place shared with 4 other MEPs.

Unlinked but matchable

16 counterpart entries in Esther Herranz García's declarations appear to match an EU Transparency Register entry without being linked in the declaration:

These are the 3 most frequent matches, covering 5 of the 16 entries; the other 11 are not listed.

Matching is automated and can be wrong - see how matching works. Linking the register entry is the fix, and it is the MEP office's to make.
