The Last Two Payment Requests Under the RRP Stalled: Romania Must Send Clarifications by 6 November
Published
The last two payment requests under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP) are currently blocked. The responsible minister has warned that Romania must resolve the issues flagged by the European Commission by 6 November. These issues concern the documentation submitted so far, which is incomplete.
The RRP is an important programme for Romania, as it funds projects in infrastructure, education, healthcare and digitalisation. The European funds under this plan depend on meeting objectives and milestones agreed with the European Union. If the documents are not complete or correct, the payment of the amounts may be postponed.
The minister stated that the incomplete documentation could influence the final decision on payments. To avoid delays, authorities must complete the files and respond to the requirements sent from Brussels within the set deadline. The information available at this time does not detail all the technical issues flagged.
The 6 November deadline is decisive for Romania. If the clarifications are sent on time and are considered sufficient, the two payment requests can continue to be assessed. Otherwise, Romania risks losing part of the funds intended for the recovery plan.
