The Government confirmed that the Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP) is being executed at 100%. The confirmation was made by the Minister of Economy and Territorial Cohesion, who ensured the full compliance of the plan.

According to the government official, the over 16,000 million euros in subsidies foreseen in the RRP are guaranteed. This value represents the total amount of European funds available to Portugal through this economic recovery instrument.

The RRP was created as a response to the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, with the objective of boosting the Portuguese economy and promoting territorial cohesion among the country's various regions.

The full execution of the plan constitutes good news for Portugal, demonstrating the country's capacity to absorb and apply the European funds destined for the recovery and transformation of the national economy.
