The CFP talks about 65% completion of renovations, but looking only at those planned through the end of 2023, the completion rate rises to 84%. The Poverty Reduction Strategy Reprogramming also added twelve reforms to the national plan.
Nearly two-thirds of the repairs expected in the recovery and resilience plan have been completed by the end of 2023, a percentage that improves to more than 80% if we consider only repairs scheduled through the end of that year, according to the data. Released this Wednesday – the exhibition by the Council on Public Finance (CFP).
Of the 57 milestones and targets associated with the original rapid response programming, 37 have already been achieved by the end of 2023, representing 65% of the programme. Considering only the targets planned through December 2023, which total 44, the completion rate rises to 84%, the CFP report adds. However, this accounting only refers to the targets set initially, before inflation and the energy crisis led to a reprogramming of the plan that increased the amount allocated to Portugal from €16.6 billion to €22.2 billion. This reprogramming added twelve more reforms to the national plan.
Among the targets yet to be achieved, the CPP highlights three targets “related to the National Health Service, including two targets that fell short of those set” and led to the temporary and partial suspension of funds allocated to Portugal. However, there is “evidence that significant milestones will be achieved in the meantime.”
The report adds: “With regard to the target regarding the number of municipalities in which the process of decentralization of responsibilities in the field of health has been completed, there is no publicly available and updated information that shows that this has been achieved unequivocally.” .
As for the targets that remain to be achieved, “they will need to be fully achieved by 2025, as only investment-related targets are expected for 2026,” the CPP highlighted.
Despite the exercise of monitoring, the foundation led by Nazaré da Costa Cabral highlights the “significant variation” in the goals and targets set, which “presents difficulties in evaluating these reforms, especially if the impact of their implementation on the economy is taken into account, especially in The Developing Countries”. In the medium and long term.
