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 European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) provides support to 6,486 workers laid off by the bankrupt battery manufacturer Northvolt in Sweden.
- The aim is to facilitate their rapid reintegration into the labour market through tailored measures such as coaching, training, and start-up assistance.
- The insolvency stems from global competition, particularly from subsidised Chinese battery producers.
- The EU is allocating 8.5 million euros to stabilise the regional economy in northern Sweden and retain skilled workers.
- Politically, the measure seeks to strengthen Europe’s strategic autonomy in the battery sector and advance the green transition.
