PRR: still much to do and evaluate

Público2 September 2026 at 00:20

Nuno Fazenda's opinion article questions the claim that the Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP) is fully completed. The author raises doubts about this conclusion given the data presented.

According to the article, there are still about 4.7 billion euros of the RRP yet to be received. There are also 300,000 projects still to be closed, ongoing works and delayed payments.

Nuno Fazenda uses these numbers to argue that the declaration of full RRP completion may be premature or incorrect, questioning the veracity of this claim.

The article comes in response to a public statement about the state of the RRP, which the author considers incompatible with the reality of the numbers still pending.
