Remarks:

  • At the beginning of their term of office, many presidents give up their group membership and are formally non-party or even non-party. The parliamentary group and faction affiliations before taking office are shown in italics.
  • Unless otherwise stated (i.e. in the post-war period so far only in 1976) the term of office of the President ended with the full term of office of the entire Chamber.
