—


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










—


having regard to the report of the Committee on Legal Affairs (A9-0015/2020),










A.


whereas pursuant to Article 12 of the Act of 20 September 1976, the European Parliament shall verify the credentials of Members of the European Parliament and for this purpose it shall take note of the results declared officially by the Member States and shall rule on any disputes which may arise out of the provisions of the 1976 Act other than those arising out of the national provisions to which that 1976 Act refers;










B.


whereas all of the Member States have notified Parliament of the names of elected Members pursuant to Rule 3(1) of the Rules of Procedure, not all names have been communicated;










C.


whereas according to Article 3 of European Council Decision 2013/312/EU of 28 June 2013 and Article 3(2) of European Council Decision (EU) 2018/937 of 28 June 2018, the number of representatives in the European Parliament allocated to Spain is currently 54, while the notification by the Spanish competent authorities contains only 51 names; whereas on the basis of the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union (10) and in accordance with Article 12 of the Act of 20 September 1976, Parliament takes note of the decision of 13 June 2019 by the Junta Electoral Central proclaiming the candidates elected to Parliament in the elections held on 26 May 2019 and published in the Boletín Oficial del Estado on 14 June 2019 for the purpose of establishing the list of elected Members; whereas, therefore, the number of representatives in the European Parliament elected in Spain has been 54;










D.


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










E.


whereas some Member States have forwarded late, and others have not yet forwarded at all, the lists of any substitutes, together with their ranking in accordance with the results of the vote, as required under Rule 3(3) of the Rules of Procedure;










F.


whereas in accordance with Rule 3(3) of the Rules of Procedure, the validity of the mandate of a Member of the European Parliament may not be confirmed unless the written declaration on the absence of any incompatible office and the written declaration of financial interests required under Rule 3 of and Annex I to the Rules of Procedure have been submitted;










G.


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










H.


whereas under Rule 11 of and Annex I to the Rules of Procedure, each Member of the European Parliament is required to make a detailed declaration concerning: (a) his or her occupations during the three-year period before he or she took up office with the Parliament, his or her membership during that period of any boards or committees of companies, non-governmental organisations, associations or other bodies established in law; (b) any salary which the Member receives for the exercise of a mandate in another parliament; (c) any regular remunerated activity which the Member undertakes alongside the exercise of his or her office, whether as an employee or as a self-employed person; (d) membership of any boards or committees of any companies, non-governmental organisations, associations or other bodies established in law, or any other relevant outside activity that the Member undertakes, whether the membership or activity in question is remunerated or unremunerated; (e) any occasional remunerated outside activity, if the total remuneration of all the Member’s occasional outside activities exceeds EUR 5 000 in a calendar year; (f) any holding in any company or partnership, where there are potential public policy implications or where that holding gives the Member significant influence over the affairs of the body in question; (g) any support, whether financial or in terms of staff or material, additional to that provided by Parliament and granted to the Member in connection with his or her political activities by third parties, whose identity shall be disclosed; (h) any other financial interests which might influence the performance of the Member’s duties. For each of these items, the Member is required to indicate, where appropriate, whether it is remunerated or not and, for items (a), (c), (d), (e) and (f), Members shall also indicate the relevant income category; whereas the information provided is published on Parliament’s website;










I.


whereas the mandate of the representatives elected in the United Kingdom is based upon its membership of the European Union; whereas, as a consequence and by virtue of Article 3(2), third subparagraph of European Council Decision (EU) 2018/937 of 28 June 2018, the mandate of these Members of the European Parliament will automatically come to an end if and on the day on which the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union becomes legally effective;










J.


whereas, by virtue of the same provisions of European Council Decision (EU) 2018/937, the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union will not cause a vacancy under Article 13 of the 1976 Act and Rule 4 of the Rules of Procedure and consequently the end of the mandate of the representatives elected in the United Kingdom will be automatic and will occur without the need of being declared by the European Parliament;










K.


whereas in the case of the withdrawal of the United Kingdom, the number of representatives in the European Parliament per Member State after the withdrawal becomes effective has been set by European Council Decision (EU) 2018/937 and will result in representatives of some Member States filling additional seats resulting from the number of seats allocated pursuant to the first and second subparagraphs of Article 3(2) of that Decision;










L.


whereas some Member States have adopted laws or regulations laying down the conditions for the organisation of elections with transnational lists;










M.


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;












1.


Declares valid, subject to any decisions by the competent authorities before which the election results may have been disputed, the mandate of the Members of the European Parliament listed in the Annex to this decision;












2.


Repeats its request to the competent national authorities not only to promptly 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, and urges those who are yet to make the relevant notifications to do so without delay;












3.


Calls on the competent authorities of the Member States to complete without delay the examination of the possible disputes referred to them, and to notify Parliament of the results; calls for a transparent evaluation of the conduct of the European elections;












4.


Acknowledges that the mandate of the representatives elected in the United Kingdom will automatically cease if and on the day on which the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union becomes legally effective;












5.


In such an event, expects that relevant notifications in order to fill the additional seats will be made by the competent authorities of the Member States without undue delay;












6.


Considers that disenfranchisement produces a potential discouraging effect on the citizens who intend to exercise the right of free movement within the EU (Article 20(2)(a) TFEU) and have repercussions on those citizens who have exercised that same right; finds that disenfranchisement violates the principle of universal suffrage (Article 14(3) TEU and Article 1(3) of the 1976 Act); moreover, expresses concerns regarding situations in which citizens are hampered in exercising their voting rights owing to a lack of clarity of procedures, including in relation to voting lists, requirements on physical presence, or difficulties in obtaining access to the necessary information from the Member States to exercise their voting rights; takes the view that under no circumstances may disenfranchisement or requirements that disproportionately hamper the exercise of voting rights apply to European elections and calls on the Commission to ensure that none of the Member States provides for that possibility;












7.


Calls on Member States in which such problems may have arisen to simplify the registration formalities relating to the participation of nationals of other Member States in the European elections, whether as voters or as candidates, 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;












8.


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