The Foundation for the Defense of Citizens Against State Abuses (FACIAS) draws attention to the fact that Romania is facing a critical examination of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, given that the next payment request for the settlement of funds allocated to Romania through the PNRR must be submitted by the end of October, this year. This will be worth 3.2 billion billion euros in total, with 2.1 billion euros in non-reimbursable financial support and 1.09 billion euros in credit support, and is dependent on the achievement of 51 milestones\/targets connected to the first and second quarters of 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This subject matter is included on the agenda of the debate Monitoring PNRR: Possibility of renegotiating the plan on unfulfilled milestones, which will be held by FACIAS on Wednesday, November 2. the implementation of the PNRR will be analyzed, one year after its inception, with European officials, Romanian state representatives, experts, and university lecturers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite the fact that Romania received money from PNRR for the first payment request in the sum of 3 billion Euros, it is important to note that the European Commission examined the 21 milestones and benchmarks that had a deadline on December 31, 2021 for the first payment request. The majority of these milestones were easily met by issuing simple ministerial directives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even to this day, not all milestones relating to quarters I and II 2022 have been met, and one of the most pressing issues is the entrance into force of the law on whistleblower protection, a statute that will transfer Directive (EU) 2019\/1937 on the protection of persons reporting violations of Union law. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another unmet milestone is the functionality of law and implementing rules for the domestic worker voucher scheme. Despite the fact that the government has published this law in the Official Gazette, it will not come into effect until January 1, 2024. We point out the fact that the PNRR's milestone achievement indicator expressly mentions \"the legal provision that signifies the entrance into force of the law implementing the work ticketing system.\" In practice, the term of the normative act's entry into effect surpasses the length of the milestone envisioned by the PNRR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even more challenging is the situation concerning milestones and targets with a deadline of September 30, 2022, where just 9 of the 24 milestones and targets in the PNRR have been met so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just as the Ministry of Education was unacceptably late in launching the call for the construction and equipment of the 110 nurseries, which was carried out with record delays, the Ministry of Education has been intolerably late, once again, in equipping the classrooms of the pre-university education units based on the minimum given standards, despite the fact that the bidding procedure for equipping the classrooms with furniture should have been sped up.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
