Week 38, 2026: Christian Ehler

14-20 September 2026 - the week in declared EU lobbying.

In the publication week of 14-20 September 2026, this site first observed 351 distinct meeting declarations by current MEPs. 145 carried a Register link and appeared within 14 days of the meeting; Christian Ehler led with 8 qualifying meetings. This site observed only 6 of the week's 7 days, Monday to Saturday. It collected no declarations from 20 to 23 September 2026 (this site's own daily update failed before saving what it read). Declarations first read in the catch-up days after a stop are not counted for any week (methodology).

Published that week: 351 distinct meeting declarations by 113 MEPs, of which 175 carried at least one declared Register link and 145 also came within 14 days of the meeting - the pool the MEP of the week is chosen from.
