The black box: in the seat since this term began, on 16 July 2024 - and no lobby meeting on record at all: none this term, and none in the record back to 2016. It records an absence of declarations, not a finding of a rule breach. How the label is counted.
As of 6 November 2026, Paulo do Nascimento Cabral (EPP, Portugal) has no lobby meetings on record for the current term under Article 7 of the MEP Code of Conduct.
For comparison, 20 of Portugal's 21 MEPs have declared at least one meeting this term, and the Parliament-wide average is 100 per member.
Paulo do Nascimento Cabral sits on the Fisheries and Agriculture and Rural Development committees, where declaration duties apply to rapporteurs and shadow rapporteurs in particular.
