About Bart GROOTHUIS

Bart Groothuis represents the Netherlands in the European Parliament as a member of the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD), the country's main liberal party that has traditionally championed free-market policies and European integration. He sits with the Renew Europe group, the centrist-liberal political family that advocates for European federalism, digital transformation, and pro-business economic policies. Before entering European politics, Groothuis worked in the private sector, including roles in technology and consulting. As a Dutch liberal MEP, Groothuis operates within a political tradition that generally supports deeper European integration, market liberalization, and institutional reform, though his specific policy focus areas and committee work shape his individual legislative priorities within the broader Renew Europe agenda.

Methodology

Attendance is calculated based on roll-call votes in plenary sessions of the European Parliament. Committee votes are excluded. Abstaining counts as present; not voting counts as absent. Sittings for which the Parliament officially excused a Member (Rule 162, illness, family, official mission, or maternity) are credited, not counted as absences. Notable votes are selected based on significance, close outcomes, and high participation.
