The wording in quotation marks above is the title Parliament gave the document, reproduced so that the record can be identified. It is not this service's description of the subject, and quoting it is not an endorsement of any claim it contains.

This record establishes that Parliament took this decision on 16 September 2026 and what the recorded counts were. It does not establish that any statement made in the document is correct, and it does not mean that legislation has entered into force: a vote in Parliament is one step in a longer procedure.

Limits of this brief

Final plenary votes on a text as a whole, where Parliament's own record identifies the document explicitly and reports both an outcome and aggregate counts. Amendment votes, split and separate votes, procedural motions, votes taken by show of hands without recorded counts, and sittings where no single whole-text vote can be identified with certainty are all excluded, and the excluded cases are the majority. How individual members voted is discarded at ingestion and never stored, so this service cannot answer questions about it. A document's title is reproduced as Parliament's title, to identify the record; it is not this service's description of the subject, and a vote does not establish that anything the document says is correct.

If something here is wrong, write to [email protected] quoting the record identifier above. Corrections are recorded on this page, not made silently.
