   to the Council of the European Union on the external auditors of the Central Bank of Ireland

   2012/C 286/01
   THE GOVERNING COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,
   Having regard to the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, and in particular Article 27.1 thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               The accounts of the European Central Bank (ECB) and national central banks are audited by independent external auditors recommended by the ECB’s Governing Council and approved by the Council of the European Union.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               The mandate of the Central Bank of Ireland’s current external auditors ended after the audit for the financial year 2011. It is therefore necessary to appoint external auditors from the financial year 2012.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               The Central Bank of Ireland has selected RSM Farrell Grant Sparks as its external auditors for the financial years 2012 to 2016,
            
         HAS ADOPTED THIS RECOMMENDATION:
