Request for the waiver of the immunity of Matteo Ricci

This procedure concerns a request to waive the parliamentary immunity of MEP Matteo Ricci. Immunity protects MEPs from legal proceedings while they are in office, ensuring their ability to perform their duties without undue interference.

The waiver allows national judicial authorities to investigate or prosecute a Member of the European Parliament. This decision is made by the Parliament itself following a recommendation from its legal affairs committee.
