BANKS AND BANKING
These Regulations are made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972. They replace the Bank Accounts Directive (Miscellaneous Banks) Regulations 1991 (S.I. 1991/2704) (“the 1991 Regulations”) and continue the implementation of Council Directive 86/635/EEC of 8th December 1986 on the annual and consolidated accounts of banks and other financial institutions. They also implement, in part, Directive 2006/43/EC on statutory audits of annual accounts and consolidated accounts (O.J. L157, 9.6.2006, p.87) (“the Audit Directive”).
