Paper Abstract
We present the status of the instrumentation programme for the European Extremely Large Telescope. The
instrumentation planning is governed by the E-ELT Instrument Roadmap, which synthesises the scientific, technical and
managerial influences on the instrument programme into a staged development plan. Preparations for the start of the
design and build phases of the first light instruments and their adaptive optics systems are well underway and are
summarised here. In parallel, the process for development of the next three instruments has begun. Recent work on the
instrument interface to the telescope is described.
