(3) On 12 November 2013, the Commission published the report of Philippe Maystadt, special advisor to the Commissioner responsible for internal market and services (the ‘special advisor’s report’), in which he outlined potential reforms to EFRAG governance aimed at reinforcing the Union’s contribution to the development of international accounting standards, in a bid to improve the international comparability and transparency of financial reporting on the situation of economic entities.

(4) The Commission closely monitored the implementation of the reform of EFRAG governance and informed duly the European Parliament and the Council of the progress in its implementation. The Commission found that EFRAG successfully implemented the conclusions of the special advisor’s report, by implementing a new governance structure, which has increased the legitimacy and representativeness of EFRAG. Therefore it is appropriate to continue financing of EFRAG for the period 2017-2020 in order to meet the long-term objectives of the Union programme to support specific activities in the field of financial reporting and auditing.
