How we count
- Yes, No and Abstention come from the European Parliament's roll-call voting protocol.
- “Did not vote” is derived: MEPs with a mandate on the voting day for whom no vote was recorded. Abstentions do not count towards this.
- Subsequent vote corrections are shown but do not change the official result.
- Each vote (overall vote, amendment, partial vote) counts separately. Therefore totals may differ from pages that count differently.

What is this about?
- The proposed digital trade agreement between the EU and Singapore aims to enhance legal certainty and consumer protection in the digital market.
- Concerns arise regarding its compatibility with EU fundamental rights, particularly data protection and privacy, as the agreement’s safeguards are narrower than those in the EU Charter.
- The lack of a clear definition for 'source code' could restrict regulatory measures on AI and algorithms, potentially conflicting with EU digital laws.
- Without an adequacy decision for Singapore under the GDPR, cross-border data transfers remain contentious.
- The Parliament seeks a Court of Justice opinion to assess the agreement’s compliance with EU treaties.
