INFO:

Parliament elects its 14 Vice-Presidents following the election of the President of the European Parliament, Roberta METSOLA, which comprise Parliament’s Bureau. Vice-Presidents can replace the President, including to chair plenary sittings and in representing the Parliament at specific ceremonies or acts, when necessary. In practice, the political groups aim to ensure that the composition of the Bureau broadly reflects the numerical strength of the groups, taking into account also the results of the President's election. The process Parliament’s Rules of Procedure set out how Bureau members are elected.
