In this way, together with the pre-financing and the first tranche of the PNRR, Romania will benefit cumulatively from payments of almost ten billion euros from this important European financing resource, informs the Ministry of European Investments and Projects.
Since the beginning of the implementation of the plan, more than 8,500 contracts have already been signed with PNRR beneficiaries, worth 11 billion euros.
The dialogue for the clarification of the necessary conditions for considering milestones 129 and 133 as having been fully met, in relation to the findings of the Audit Authorities, concerns the value of 143 million euros, related to the two milestones.
In accordance with the provisions of European Regulation 241/2021, the payment related to the second installment can be made for the amount of 2.67 billion euros, with the difference of 143 million euros to be made after the completion of the procedure for clarifying the terms of fulfillment of the conditions specific to milestones 129 and 133, within a maximum period of 6 months.
