New national side of euro coins intended for circulation

2011/C 301/06

Image

National side of the new commemorative 2-euro coin intended for circulation and issued by the Vatican City State

Euro coins intended for circulation have legal tender status throughout the euro area. For the purpose of informing the public and all parties who handle the coins, the Commission publishes a description of the designs of all new coins (1). In accordance with the Council conclusions of 10 February 2009 (2), the Member States and countries that have concluded a monetary agreement with the Community providing for the issuing of euro coins are allowed to issue commemorative euro coins intended for circulation, provided that certain conditions are met, particularly that only the 2-euro denomination is used. These coins have the same technical characteristics as other 2-euro coins, but their national face features a commemorative design that is highly symbolic in national or European terms.

Issuing country: The Vatican City State

Subject of commemoration: The 26th World Youth Day

Description of the design: The inner part of the coin shows, at the centre, some young people and flags, and also the mintmark ‘R’ and the year ‘2011’. At the top, along the outer limit of the inner ring, from left to right, ‘XXVI’ and ‘G.M.G’ from Giornata Mondiale della Gioventù (World Youth Day). At the bottom, the name of the issuing country ‘CITTÀ DEL VATICANO’.

The coin’s outer ring depicts the 12 stars of the European flag.

Number of coins to be issued:

Date of issue: October 2011

---

(1)  See OJ C 373, 28.12.2001, p. 1 for the national faces of all the coins issued in 2002.

(2)  See the conclusions of the Economic and Financial Affairs Council of 10 February 2009 and the Commission Recommendation of 19 December 2008 on common guidelines for the national sides and the issuance of euro coins intended for circulation (OJ L 9, 14.1.2009, p. 52).

IN THE MATTER OF IRISH LIFE AND PERMANENT GROUP HOLDINGS PLC (‘ILPGH’) AND IN THE MATTER OF IRISH LIFE AND PERMANENT PLC (‘ILP’) AND IN THE MATTER OF THE CREDIT INSTITUTIONS (STABILISATION) ACT 2010 (‘THE ACT’)

The High Court of Ireland did on 26 July 2011 make a Direction Order pursuant to Section 9 of the Act in the following terms:

Directing ILPGH, inter alia, to take certain steps in connection with and to enable the investment by the Minister for Finance of Ireland (the ‘Minister’) of up to the value of EUR 3 800 000 000 in ILPGH, such steps including but not limited to the increase of ILPGH’s authorised ordinary share capital and the alteration of the issued and the authorised but unissued share capital, the adoption of new articles of association and the alteration of the existing memorandum of association, the issue by ILPGH of ordinary shares to the Minister and to enter into certain agreements with ILP and others to facilitate the investment.

Directing ILP (being a credit institution licensed in Ireland), inter alia, to take certain steps in connection with the investment by the Minister referred to above, including the issue to the Minister of contingent capital notes and to enter into certain agreements with ILPGH and others to facilitate the investment.

The Court did declare, inter alia, that the Direction Order and each and every part of it insofar as it is addressed to and is made in respect of ILP is a reorganisation measure for the purposes of Directive 2001/24/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 April 2001.

Pursuant to Section 11 of the Act, an application may be made for the setting aside of the Direction Order on the conditions set out therein, to the High Court of Ireland, at the Four Courts, Inns Quay, Dublin 7, Ireland not later than five working days after the making of the Direction Order. Pursuant to Section 64(2) of the Act, no appeal lies from the Direction Order to the Supreme Court without leave of the High Court.
