For the CDU/CSU group, legislative committees such as AGRI and ITRE could take priority when it comes to the distribution of committee chairs. David McAllister, who has so far chaired the Committee on Foreign Affairs, could become one of 14 Vice-Presidents in the European Parliament. Sabine Verheyen is also a candidate for the post of Vice-President.

Sabine Verheyen, Vice-President of the NRW CDU, MEP since 2009 and most recently Chair of the Culture Committee (CULT), is said to have ambitions to succeed the long-standing Vice-President.
