(AGENPARL) – BRUXELLES mar 21 giugno 2022 EU support for the implementation of Slovenia’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) amounts to €2 482.3 million, and includes €1 776.9 million in grants and €705.4 million in loans. This amount should be committed by the end of 2023, and paid out to Slovenia by the end of 2026. While the overall allocation represents only 0.3 % of the total Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), it stood at 5.1 % of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019 (the RRF being 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP in 2019). Slovenia, one of the seven Member States that have already requested loans, decided to use 22 % of the maximum amount of loans available; it can request the remaining €2 900 million up to the end of August 2023. While in nominal terms, Slovenia is among the Member States with the smallest total allocation, it ranks much higher per capita. With €1 185 per citizen (grants and loans), Slovenia is among the ten biggest RRF beneficiaries. On 17 September 2021, Slovenia received €231 million in pre-financing, equivalent to 13 % of the grant allocation. Slovenia did not ask for a pre-financing of the loan component. Further payments – ten instalments for grants and six for loans – will depend on progress in implementing the plan. Slovenia’s NRRP includes 34 reforms and 58 investments, designed to tackle both the Covid-19 pandemic’s socio-economic consequences and more long-standing challenges facing the country and identified in the Slovenian development strategy 2030. The plan is strongly focused on the green transition and digital transformation. Planned spending on these areas exceeds the compulsory targets, totalling 42.4 % for climate and 21.4 % for digital. Other priority areas include smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, and health and welfare. The European Parliament participates in interinstitutional forums for cooperation and discussion on RRF implementation, and scrutinises the European Commission’s work. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. First edition. The ‘NGEU delivery’ briefings are updated at key stages throughout the lifecycle
