DECISION (EU, Euratom) 2016\/1201 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, THE COUNCIL AND THE COMMISSION<\/p>\n

of 13 July 2016<\/p>\n

appointing the members of the Supervisory Committee of the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF)<\/p>\n

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, THE COUNCIL AND THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,<\/p>\n

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,<\/p>\n

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community,<\/p>\n

Having regard to Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 883\/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11\u00a0September 2013 concerning investigations conducted by the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1073\/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Regulation (Euratom) No 1074\/1999\u00a0(1<\/span>), and in particular Article 15(2) of this Regulation.<\/p>\n

\n

Article 15(2) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 883\/2013 provides that the Supervisory Committee of the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) shall be composed of five independent members having experience in senior judicial or investigative functions or comparable functions relating to the areas of activity of the Office. They shall be appointed by common accord of the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission. The decision appointing the members of the Supervisory Committee shall also include a reserve list of potential members to replace members of the Supervisory Committee for the remainder of their term of office in the event of the resignation, death or permanent incapacity of one or more of those members.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n<\/colgroup>\n\n\n
\n

(2)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

According to Article 15(3), the term of office of the members of the Supervisory Committee shall be five years and shall not be renewable. Three and two members shall be replaced alternately in order to preserve the Supervisory Committee’s expertise.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n<\/colgroup>\n\n\n
\n

\n

According to Article 21(2), the duties of two members of the Supervisory Committee, chosen by lot, are to end, by way of derogation from the first sentence of Article 15(3), upon the expiry of the first 36 months of their term of office. Therefore, the duties of two members appointed with effect from 23 January 2012 ended on 22\u00a0January 2015. In accordance with Article 15(4) of the Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 883\/2013, these members remained in office after the expiry of their term of office, pending completion of the process of appointment of new members of the Supervisory Committee. New members should therefore be appointed to replace these two members.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n<\/colgroup>\n\n\n
