PURPOSE: to appoint a Member of the Court of Auditors.
PROPOSED ACT: Council Decision.
CONTENT: under Article 247, paragraph 3, of the EC Treaty and Article 160b of the EAEC, Members of the Court of Auditors are appointed by the Council, acting by a qualified majority after having consulted the European Parliament.
Given that the term of office of Mr David BOSTOCK to the Court expires on 31 December 2007, the United Kingdom authorities have proposed for his term of office to be renewed.
As a consequence, this proposal aims to inform the European Parliament about the appointment of Mr David BOSTOCK.
