A European Parliament recommendation to the Council, the Commission and the Vice-President of the Commission / High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy concerning EU-China political relations

How the chamber divided

One dot per member seated on the day, arranged in a hemicycle-style layout from left to right by political group. This does not reproduce individual seat assignments. Colour is how they voted; marks on the outer edge divide the groups, which are named under the chart.

How each group voted

Each bar is one group’s members who voted, split by how they voted. Above it: how many of the group’s members seated that day voted, and the group’s majority - more than half of those voting - if it had one. A group’s members are counted as Parliament’s records place them on the day of the vote. The groups page and member pages go by the site’s member list as it stands now, so their counts can differ where a member has changed group, joined or left. Groups are in the order they sit in the chamber, from left to right, as in the chart above. Non-attached members belong to no group, so no majority is given for them.
