Roll-call voting record
Recorded votes only. Parliament held 4,315 roll-call votes while Volker Schnurrbusch held the seat, 427 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.

On the 384 final texts where more than half of ESN members casting a vote went one way, and Volker Schnurrbusch 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.

Unlinked but matchable
4 counterpart entrys in Volker Schnurrbusch's declarations appear to match an EU Transparency Register entry without being linked in the declaration:
- “CITA” - likely The International Motor Vehicle Inspection Committee (1 counterpart entry)
- “European Association of Automotive Suppliers” - likely European Association Automotive Suppliers (1 counterpart entry)
- “Ferrmed” - likely PROMOTION DU GRAND AXE FERROVIAIRE DE MARCHANDISES (1 counterpart entry)
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.
