π¬ βWe do not have a complete picture of how #RRF funds are used. Citizens have the right to know to know how public funds are used, who receives the funds, and how much is actually spent. These #RRF transparency gaps should not spill over into the EUβs future budgets.β

β οΈ The #RRF - the EUβs multi-billion COVID fund - is not transparent enough: public information on the spending is lacking. This is the conclusion of a new report by the @EUauditors.
Key points:
π β¬577 billion COVID recovery fund is based on financing not linked to costs
π Information on recipients, actual costs and results achieved is insufficient
π Gaps in transparency and traceability must be plugged in future EU budgets
