Roll-call voting record
Recorded votes only. Parliament held 6,412 roll-call votes while Maria Noichl 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.
How they voted on final texts
Share of the 606 final votes held while seated.
With and against the group
On the 576 final texts where more than half of S&D members casting a vote went one way, and Maria Noichl also voted. Groups are not bound to vote together: a Member's mandate is personal and exercised freely, so neither figure is a measure of performance.

- “Humane Society International/Europe” - likely Humane World for Animals Europe (3 counterpart entries)
- “AAP Animal Advocacy and Protection” - likely AAP Animal Advocacy and Protection (2 counterpart entries)
- “AVEC” - likely Association de l'Aviculture, de l'Industrie et du Commerce de Volailles dans les Pays de l'Union Europeenne asbl (1 counterpart entry)
These are the 3 most frequent matches, covering 6 of the 22 entries; the other 16 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.
