The Consejo de Cuentas de Castilla y León is the external audit institution (OCEx) of the Autonomous Community of Castilla y León, established by Law 2/2002 of 9 April and dependent on the Cortes de Castilla y León. Its three Consejeros are elected by the Cortes de Castilla y León for four-year terms, requiring a three-fifths majority in the first vote or an absolute majority in subsequent votes.
The President is appointed by the Cortes by absolute majority at the proposal of the Consejo's Plenary; the President may be re-elected for a second four-year term only. The Consejo audits the financial management of the Castilian-Leonese public sector including local entities. Reports are submitted to the Cortes and made public. It operates alongside the national Tribunal de Cuentas with overlapping jurisdiction.
