What changed
Latest Tabled for plenary → Adopted by Parliament
AI summary:Parliament now decides to waive Matej Tonin's immunity rather than not to waive it. The text states that he was elected in June 2024 and was not a Member at the time of the alleged offences. It no longer raises concerns about the timing of the investigation and the request, and adds that the request details his former actions, stems from a broader investigation and shows no evidence of fumus persecutionis. The other changes are wording: the request's transmission and the alleged offences are rephrased.
