European Ϸվ: Facts and Figures
This Briefing, published by the European Ϸվary Research Service, is designed to provide key facts and figures about the European Ϸվ, both today - during the current 2014 to 2019 parliamentary term - and in the seven previous terms since direct elections were introduced in June 1979. On the following pages you will find graphics of various kinds which: • detail the composition of the European Ϸվ now and in the past; • trace the increase in the number of parties represented in the EP and evolution of political groups; • chart the rise in the number of women sitting in the Ϸվ; • explain the electoral systems used in elections to the Ϸվ across the Member States; • show how turnout in European elections compares with that in national elections; • summarise the activity of the Ϸվ in the 2009-14 term, and so far in the current term; • present the annual cost of the Ϸվ compared with other parliaments; • outline the composition of the Ϸվ’s main governing bodies. The Briefing is updated regularly during the 2014-19 term to take account of latest developments.
