Verification of credentials
European Parliament decision of 11 February 2015 on the verification of credentials (2014/2165(REG))
(2016/C 310/11)

The European Parliament,






—


having regard to the Act of 20 September 1976 concerning the election of the Members of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage (1),










—


having regard to its decision of 28 September 2005 adopting the Statute for Members of the European Parliament (2), in particular Articles 2(1) and 3(1) thereof,










—


having regard to Council Directive 93/109/EC of 6 December 1993 laying down detailed arrangements for the exercise of the right to vote and stand as a candidate in elections to the European Parliament for citizens of the Union residing in a Member State of which they are not nationals (3)











—


having regard to the judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union of 7 July 2005 and 30 April 2009 (4),










—


having regard to Rules 3, 4, and 11 of and Annex I to its Rules of Procedure,










—


having regard to the official notifications from the competent authorities of the Member States of the results of the election to the European Parliament,










—


having regard to the report of the Committee on Legal Affairs (A8-0013/2015),










A.


whereas Article 7(1) and (2) of the Act of 20 September 1976 clearly set out the offices that are incompatible with the office of Member of the European Parliament;










B.


whereas under Rule 11 of and Annex I to the Rules of Procedure Members are required to make a detailed declaration of their professional activities and any other remunerated functions or activities;










C.


whereas all of the Member States have notified Parliament of the names of the elected candidates, but some of them have not yet forwarded — or have done so with a delay — the lists of any substitutes, together with their ranking in accordance with the results of the vote, as required under Rule 3(4) of the Rules of Procedure;










D.


whereas in some cases Member States provided partial notification of elected candidates and forwarded further details subsequently;










E.


whereas in some Member States objections to the election of some Members of the European Parliament are being considered in accordance with national legislation and whereas these procedures could result in the annulment of the election of the Members concerned;










F.


whereas, pursuant to Article 12 of the Act of 20 September 1976, Parliament is required to rule on any disputes concerning the validity of the mandate of its Members only where these relate to breaches of the provisions of the above-mentioned Act, and not in the case of breaches of the national electoral provisions to which the Act refers;










G.


whereas in order to verify the credentials of its Members in accordance with Article 12 of the Act of 1976, Parliament must take note of the results of the election as officially declared by the competent authorities of the Member States, with no possibility for discretion in the matter; whereas, however, this provision does not prevent Parliament from reporting, where appropriate, potential cases of incompatibility between the national electoral legislation, on which the results are based, and EU law;










H.


whereas the nationals of certain Member States who have been living in another country for a given period of time can be deprived of the right to vote in their home Member State (disenfranchisement); whereas in some cases this may also entail the deprivation of the right to stand as a candidate;










I.


whereas the UK Electoral Commission has reported that a number of nationals of other Member States who are resident in the UK could not exercise their right to vote at the last European election;












1.


Declares valid, subject to any decisions by the competent authorities of Member States in which the election results have been disputed, the mandate of the Members of the European Parliament listed in the annex to this decision whose election has been notified by the competent national authorities and who have made the written declarations required on the basis of Article 7(1) and (2) of the Act of 20 September 1976 and Annex I to the Rules of Procedure;












2.


Repeats its request to the competent national authorities not only promptly to notify it of all the names of the elected candidates but also to forward the names of any substitutes, together with their ranking in accordance with the results of the vote;












3.


Calls on the competent authorities of the Member States to complete without delay the examination of the disputes referred to them and to notify Parliament of the results;












4.


Considers that disenfranchisement is tantamount to punishing nationals who have exercised the right of free movement within the EU (Article 20(2)(a) TFEU), to denying them their right to vote and to stand as candidates in elections to the European Parliament in their Member State of residence (Article 20(2)(b) TFEU) and to violating the principle of direct universal suffrage (Article 14(3) TEU and Article 1(3) of the Act of 1976); takes the view that under no circumstances may disenfranchisement apply to European elections and calls on the Commission to ensure that none of the Member States provides for that possibility;












5.


Calls on Member States to ensure that the registration formalities relating to the participation of nationals of other Member States in the European elections, whether as voters or as candidates, are simplified, in particular by removing unnecessary administrative barriers so as to make the rights referred to under Article 20(2)(a) and (b) TFEU effective; requests that the Commission ensure that the practices of the Member States comply with EU law;












6.


Instructs its President to forward this decision to the Commission and the competent national authorities and the parliaments of the Member States.
