About Dirk GOTINK
Dirk Gotink represents the Netherlands in the European Parliament as a member of the Christian Democratic Appeal (CDA), the country's centre-right Christian democratic party that has traditionally been one of the major political forces in Dutch politics. He sits with the European People's Party (EPP), the Parliament's largest political group, which advocates for centre-right policies including market economics, Christian democratic values, and European integration within a framework of subsidiarity. Gotink demonstrates exceptional commitment to his parliamentary duties, maintaining a 98% attendance record and participating in 1,835 of 1,873 votes during his current term, significantly above the European Parliament's average attendance rate of approximately 82%. His consistent presence in parliamentary proceedings reflects his engagement with the legislative process. The CDA has historically played a central role in Dutch coalition governments and maintains a pro-European stance while emphasizing traditional Christian democratic principles of social market economy and family values within the broader European conservative movement.
