Hildegard Bentele

Compared with the averages

Transparency this term

Monthly declared meetings (bars) and the share of all counterpart entries carrying a declared Register link, including diplomatic and government entries (line), July 2024 to November 2026. This is the same current-term window as the figures above, beginning 16 July 2024.

Current month, partial through 6 Nov 2026: 2 declared meetings in Nov 2026, 100% of all counterpart entries carry a declared Register link. Peak: 39 in Nov 2025.

Busiest month: 39 declared in November 2025. Months with no declared meetings have no Register-share value; a dashed stretch of the line joins the months either side.

Who Hildegard Bentele meets most

Roll-call voting record

Recorded votes only. Parliament held 6,412 roll-call votes while Hildegard Bentele held the seat, 606 of them the final vote on a text. A member with no vote recorded may have been on parliamentary business, ill, on leave, or present without voting - the published record does not distinguish these and gives no reason. Votes taken by show of hands or by secret ballot are not recorded by name and are absent here.

Unlinked but matchable

31 counterpart entries in Hildegard Bentele's declarations appear to match an EU Transparency Register entry without being linked in the declaration:

• “European Copper Institute (International Copper Association Europe)” - likely International Copper Association Europe (3 counterpart entries)
• “ASML Netherlands B.V. Procter & Gamble Siemens Energy AG Noble Elements” - likely ASML Netherlands B.V. (1 counterpart entry)
• “ActionAid” - likely ActionAid (1 counterpart entry)

These are the 3 most frequent matches, covering 5 of the 31 entries; the other 26 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.
