    Description of Reforms and Investments
  • A. 
    COMPONENT 1.1: POWER UP

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan targets reforms and investments to increase the weight of renewable energy sources in the electricity system and facilitate Greece’s process of decarbonisation. Reforms shall simplify licensing rules for renewable energy investment, make the electricity market more efficient, and secure the financial sustainability of support schemes. The component also includes key investments in networks to complete the interconnection with the Cyclades islands and make electricity distribution more environment-friendly and able to absorb a greater share of renewable energy. Storage systems shall also support the decarbonisation of the economy through accumulating surplus renewable electricity. Land rehabilitation shall also be supported in areas currently used as lignite mines, as a step of the just transition process in the territories most affected by the phase-out of lignite. The component is in line with the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) and supports addressing the country-specific recommendations on public and private investment (Country Specific Recommendation 3 of 2020 and Country Specific Recommendation 2 of 2019). It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01).

A.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Investment: Support of the installation of storage systems to enhance renewable energy (RES) penetration (measure ID: 16926)

The investment provides public grants for the installation of up to 1 380 MW capacity of energy storage in the electricity system. These investments shall allow the system integration of new RES capacity which is required for the achievement of NECP targets. In addition, this action shall also alleviate network congestion, increase the flexibility of the electricity system and liquidity of balancing market, enhance system adequacy, enable energy efficiency, promote transparency in electricity price formation, and lower energy costs. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Investment: Revitalization actions of the most affected territories (Just transition territories) (measure ID: 16871)

The investment consists of grants for financing land rehabilitation in the areas of former lignite mines in Western Macedonia and Megalopolis. The measure shall address the just transition areas, with environmental and economic interventions, such as soil remediation, redevelopment and implementation of interventions regarding landscape and environment restoration, readjustments in land uses, and the creation of organised receptors of activities. The implementation of this investment shall be managed by a special purpose vehicle to be established by Greece. The special purpose vehicle shall become the new rightful owner and land developer of the transferred geographical areas. The special project vehicle shall be responsible for the financing and for carrying out the sanitization, restoration, rehabilitation and upgrading works. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Investment: Interventions for the electricity interconnection of islands and the upgrading of the electricity network (measure ID: 16870)

The investment includes the electricity interconnection of the Cyclades Islands (Phase D), an overhead line connecting Extra High Voltage Centre (EHVC) Corinth and EHVC Koumoundouros and accompanying projects. The projects shall boost energy system security, while also increasing the potential for electricity generation from RES in the islands and the Peloponnese. They shall reduce energy costs, leading to new investments and jobs in the energy-intensive sectors of the economy. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Investment: Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator (HEDNO) network upgrades aiming at enhancing resilience and protecting the environment (measure ID: 16901)

The investment consists of undergrounding and rerouting of the electricity distribution network in settlements of special importance from a cultural or tourism point of view as well as city centres, with priority given to areas where the infrastructure is vulnerable to extreme weather. It shall improve the resilience of the distribution network and contribute to the protection of the environment. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Investment: Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator (HEDNO) overhead network upgrading in forest areas (measure ID: 16900)

The investment consists of a replacement of bare conductors in the overhead electricity distribution network (with covered ones or a twisted cable), installation of insulating covers, and undergrounding or relocation of the electricity distribution network passing through forest areas. The project shall improve the resilience and reliability of the network (energy quality indicators SAIDI, SAIFI) and better protect the environment (forests, wildlife). The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Investment: Installed capacity increase in Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator (HEDNO) High Voltage/Medium Voltage substations for new RES connection (measure ID: 16899)

The investment shall increase the capacity of existing substations of the network to address the congestion of the distribution grid that are currently preventing further investment in renewable energy. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Reform: Restructuring and enhancement of the Renewable Energy Sources-Combined Heat and Power (RES-CHP) Account revenues (measure ID: 16865)

The reform consists of: (a) the restructuring of the existing remuneration structure for RES Producers, through the establishment for new RES units (commissioned after 1 January 2021) of a New RES-CHP Account replacing the current one complemented by new mechanisms that shall guarantee the financial viability of both of the existing and the New RES-CHP Accounts; and (b) the introduction of a Guarantees of Origin trading system, of an extraordinary “Covid-19 Duty” for RES producers and Suppliers, and of a permanent “carbon tax” on diesel fuel. The measures shall ensure the viability of the existing installed RES capacity and shall facilitate the financing of new projects in RES, as any unexpected inflows/outflows leading to a negative impact on the RES account(s) shall be addressed through the regulatory fees that shall be passed on to the customers. The implementation of the reform, including an increase of 3 Gigawatt in the electricity production capacity from renewable energy sources, shall be completed by 30 June 2025.

Reform: Streamline the efficient operation of the new electricity market model and the development of new RES plants to reach NECP targets through the implementation of monitoring mechanism, the participation of demand response and an extensive reform of the licensing procedure for new RES (measure ID: 16860)

The reform consists of streamlining of the licensing framework for RES, including simplification and digitalisation of procedures, short and binding administrative response times and accountability procedures for unnecessary delays, reduction of the necessary documentation and procedures, as well as a new dedicated framework for offshore RES plants. The aim is to accelerate the doubling of the installed capacity of RES in view of the lignite phase-out in Greece.

Finally, the reform shall also establish a market monitoring system for the National Regulatory Authority (RAE) and the participation of demand-side response (DSR) in the balancing market.

The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 30 June 2022.

    COMPONENT 1.3: RECHARGE AND REFUEL

The recharge and refuel component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan comprises targeted reforms and investments to increase sustainable mobility, enhance economic growth, create job opportunities and promote social resilience. The measures included under this component are linked to the nationwide strategy of sustainable mobility, thus supporting the implementation of the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP). They shall also contribute to the green transition through providing support to enterprises carrying out operations related to the low carbon economy and climate change resilience. The component further includes reforms to support the installation of e-mobility infrastructure and revision of the public urban and regional passenger transportation services. The component also includes investments to support the development of production capacity of supplies related to e-mobility and replacement of busses and taxis with battery electric vehicles.

The component supports addressing Country Specific Recommendation 3 of 2020 and Country Specific Recommendation 2 of 2019, on public and private investment. It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01).

C.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Investment: Produc-E Green (measure ID: 16831)

This investment constitutes of two projects that both aim to contribute to the low carbon economy and to resilience to climate change. The first project targets the supply-side of emobility. It shall provide support for the development of more than 10 sites with R&D departments for innovative products or services, such as the recycling of electric car batteries through re-use of raw materials like lithium and cobalt or the designing of electric vehicles and regular or high power charge points. In order to ensure that the measure complies with the

Do No Significant Harm Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01), the eligibility criteria contained in terms of reference for calls for projects shall exclude the following list of activities: (i) activities related to fossil fuels, including downstream use 5 ; (ii) activities under the EU

Emission Trading System (ETS) achieving projected greenhouse gas emissions that are not lower than the relevant benchmarks 6 ; (iii) activities related to waste landfills, incinerators 7 and mechanical biological treatment plants 8 ; and (iv) activities where the long-term disposal of

5 Except projects under this measure in power and/or heat generation, as well as related transmission and distribution infrastructure, using natural gas, that are compliant with the conditions set out in Annex III of the

‘Do no significant harm’ Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01).

6 Where the activity supported achieves projected greenhouse gas emissions that are not significantly lower than the relevant benchmarks an explanation of the reasons why this is not possible should be provided. Benchmarks established for free allocation for activities falling within the scope of the Emissions Trading System, as set out in the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/447.

7 This exclusion does not apply to actions under this measure in plants exclusively dedicated to treating nonrecyclable hazardous waste, and to existing plants, where the actions under this measure are for the purpose of increasing energy efficiency, capturing exhaust gases for storage or use or recovering materials from incineration ashes, provided such actions under this measure do not result in an increase of the plants’ waste processing capacity or in an extension of the lifetime of the plants; for which evidence is provided at plant level.

8 This exclusion does not apply to actions under this measure in existing mechanical biological treatment plants, where the actions under this measure are for the purpose of increasing energy efficiency or retrofitting to recycling operations of separated waste to compost bio-waste and anaerobic digestion of bio-waste, provided such actions under this measure do not result in an increase of the plants’ waste processing capacity or in an extension of the lifetime of the plants; for which evidence is provided at plant level.

waste may cause harm to the environment. The terms of reference shall additionally require that only activities that comply with relevant EU and national environmental legislation may be selected.

The second project shall provide support to the development of the first CO 2 storage facility in Greece. The carbon capture and storage facility is designed to provide long term storage for

CO 2 captured from local emitters (up to a distance of 150 km) and shall arrive at the facility by pipeline whilst CO 2 captured at remote sites shall arrive by ship and enter a buffer storage facility. The capacity of the carbon capture and storage facility shall initially have a CO 2 injection rate of one million tonnes/year and shall provide capacity for, at least, 25 years. It is expected that this measure does not do significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measure and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01). In particular, the carbon capture and storage facility shall operate without using any commercial oil extraction or oil recovery activities (some extraction of oil or gas may be required for safety or technical reasons. Further, the carbon capture and storage shall also comply with the requirement that there will be no technological applications, neither any type of facilities and equipment engineered towards Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) application and increased oil production.

Care will be taken that any possible extraction of oil or gas is limited to the indispensable needs of managing pressure and ensuring safety of the storage sites and that any such extraction will be done only if indispensable to ensure the safe storage of CO 2 . The CO 2 along with any oil or gas that may be extracted will be separated and fed back for permanent storage.

The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Reform: Framework for installation and operation of EV charging infrastructure (measure ID: 16281)

    COMPONENT 2.1: CONNECT

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan contains measures that aim to foster and facilitate the widespread deployment of very high capacity networks, including 5G and fibre, in line with the EU’s 2025 5G and Gigabit connectivity objectives, and the development of a constellation of small satellites. The investments included under this component concern the installation of fibre optic infrastructure in buildings, the development of 5G networks covering all major Greek highways, the deployment of submarine fibre cables to connect mainland Greece with the Greek islands and Cyprus and the utilisation of space technologies and applications by developing a constellation of small-satellites that shall support secure connectivity services coupled with multipurpose applications for earth observation. The reforms included under this component establish a framework to facilitate the switch to fast broadband connections and the transition to 5G technology.

All proposed investments and reforms address the challenges resulting from the increasing need for connectivity and earth observation and surveillance. The measures support addressing the Country Specific Recommendation on public and private investment (Country Specific Recommendation 3 2020), which calls Greece to focus investment on digital transition and particularly on very-high-capacity digital infrastructure. They also respond effectively to the digital transition and/or the challenges resulting from it, as they are expected to significantly contribute to improve very-high-speed connectivity in Greece. It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01).

E.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Investment: Small-satellites (measure ID: 16855)

The investment concerns the development of a constellation of small satellites that shall support connectivity services, as well as earth observation applications in the fields of mapping, shipping, precision agriculture, spatial planning and others. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Reform: Transition to 5G technology, facilitating the development of innovative remote services (measure ID: 16844)

The reform shall establish a basis for the transition to 5G technology. The first phase of the reform focuses on the implementation of the regulatory and legislative framework, in particular using 25% of the multi-band 5G auction earnings to support the innovative Phaistos fund which invests in companies and projects providing 5G products and services. The second phase shall include a process for identifying further opportunities and risks in the development of 5G networks, the streamlining of procedures, and the assessment of requirements and risks in specific economic applications (such as transport). The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 30 September 2024.

Investment: 5G Corridors – Develop 5G networks that shall provide coverage of all Greek motorways that are part of the Trans-European Transport Networks (measure ID: 16834)

The investment comprises the development of 5G network infrastructure along the major Greek highways that are part of the Trans-European Transport Networks in order to serve the needs for Connected and Autonomous Mobility. The implementation of the investment is expected to start by 31 December 2021 and shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Reform: Switch to fast broadband connections – Transition to 100/200 Mbps (UltraFast) broadband connections and strengthening of Superfast Broadband demand (measure ID: 16857)

This reform consists in the design and implementation of an action plan for the transition to 100/200 Mbps (Ultrafast) broadband connections through the installation of fibre optics and the accompanying equipment in buildings, as well as submarine cables in the case of Greek islands, enabling greater coverage of ultra-high speed network connections. The plan shall include actions, prerequisite activities, time schedules, as well as any required changes on the existing legislative and regulatory framework to accompany and monitor the transition to Ultrafast broadband connections. The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 30 June 2024.

Investment: Submarine fiber cables (measure ID: 16962)

The investment consists of the deployment of modern submarine fibre cables that shall connect mainland Greece with its islands and with Cyprus. It aims to remove a major obstacle in the availability of high-speed broadband services to end-users, both through fixed and mobile networks, and enhance the capacity and resilience of the backhaul infrastructure in support of 5G. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Investment: Fiber optic infrastructure in buildings (measure ID: 16818)

The investment promotes the installation of the fibre optic infrastructure in residential and commercial buildings and end-users’ connection with very high capacity networks (VHCN) based on a demand subsidy (voucher) scheme that shall subsidize (a) the costs of internal cabling and (b) the connection fees (the one-off setup fee of broadband services). The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

E.2. Milestones, targets, indicators, and timetable for monitoring and implementation for non-repayable financial support

    COMPONENT 2.3: DIGITALISATION OF BUSINESS

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience concerns the provision of capital to Greek small and medium-sized enterprises to finance the investment in digital technologies and purchase of associated services. It aims to address the currently low levels of digital maturity among them, including due to low digital skills, whilst fostering productivity and the development of innovative businesses. At the same time, it is expected to help such businesses to adapt to new challenges and take advantage of emerging business trends. In particular, the component provides for the establishment of a single digital marketplace, to which both the suppliers of these products and services shall have access. Promoting the use of electronic payments and sales, upgrading of cash registers and POS ecosystem, and the creation of industrial data platforms are key targets of this component. Further, the component offers tax incentives that help to create a digital business ecosystem conducive to the digital transformation of small- and medium-sized enterprises. A central supporting mechanism for small- and medium-sized enterprises, facilitating the provision of training and awareness programs so that they may make the most of the tools and services offered through the digital marketplace, is also envisaged.

The measures are expected to respond to the digital transition and the challenges resulting from it, as they are expected to contribute to the uptake of digital technologies and digital upskilling of small- and medium-sized enterprises in Greece. Further, the measures are also expected to facilitate smart and sustainable growth by further stimulating private investment, thus helping to address the Country Specific Recommendation on public and private investment (CSR 3 2020). It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU)

2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 89 H. COMPONENT 3.1: PROMOTE JOB CREATION AND PARTICIPATION IN THE

LABOUR MARKET

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan involves measures to redesign and strengthen active labour market policies, improve the efficiency of public employment services and provide an effective safety net against unemployment while strengthening incentives for labour market re-entry. The bulk of the component measures is concentrated on

Active Labour Market Policies including activation programmes that subsidize employment in the private sector and promote upskilling and reskilling of the labour force, as well as investments to boost the capacity of the public employment service (OAED) through enhanced digitalisation and counselling services. Under the reform of Passive Labour Market

Policies, the Plan aims to improve the coverage and distribution of unemployment benefits, strengthen the social safety net, promote labour market participation, including among vulnerable groups, and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the social protection system. The component is in line with the country-specific recommendations to ensure effective labour market activation support, invest in skills and employability, and to improve digitalisation of the public administration (country-specific recommendation 2 and 3 2020 and country specific recommendation 2 2019). Moreover, by focusing on promoting skills and employment in the digital and green sector among others, the component supports the digital and green transition. It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical

Guidance (2021/C58/01).

H.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Reform: Modernisation and Simplification of Labour Law (measure ID: 16744)

The reform entails the entry into force of a comprehensive Labour Law that shall streamline key aspects of the labour market with a view to improving its functioning. Notably, the reform shall aim at modernising a) the law for individual labour, b) the law for collective labour and the trade union law, c) the ERGANI IT system of the Ministry of Labour that is used for monitoring the labour market and for detecting undeclared and under-declared work, and d) the framework on work-life balance. The reform’s overarching objectives are increasing job creation and competitiveness, fighting undeclared and under-declared work, improving work-life balance and bridging the gender employment gap. The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 30 September 2021.

Investment: Digital Transformation of Labour Systems (measure ID: 16750)

The investment focuses on the modernisation of the public administration’s capacity to offer better and faster services to employees and employers, with a view to cutting red tape, improving the effectiveness of labour market monitoring mechanisms, reducing undeclared and undeclared work, and obtaining timely and accurate data. Notably, the investment consists of the upgrading of the digital infrastructure of e-EFKA (Unified Social Security

Fund), including the Digital Pension Award system (ATLAS), and the interconnection of disparate IT systems (ERGANI, EFKA and SEPE) under a single system (ARIADNE).

Finally, the investment includes the setting-up of an Integrated IT system for occupational health and safety issues (HERIDANOS). The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2024.

Reform: Active Labour Market Policies Reform (measure ID: 16747)

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 90 The reform of active labour market policies (ALMPs) aims to maximize their effectiveness through the redesign and strengthening of wage subsidy programmes and gradual transition to a new delivery model for ALMPs. The reform is coupled with significant investments. These notably include a) five targeted short-term programmes subsidising employment in the private sector for 52 000 unemployed people (including a programme combining training and employment support), b) implementation of the new pilot-tested open-framework delivery model for ALMPs to additional three geographical areas (where participants shall be offered

22 500 training programmes, 15 000 employment subsidies and 852 entrepreneurship subsidies), c) temporary enhancement of the counselling staff of the Public Employment

Service (600 additional counsellors for 4 years) and d) training of the counselling staff. A dedicated part of the allocated grants shall contribute to green skills and jobs in the green economy. The implementation of the reform and investments shall be completed by

31 December 2025.

Reform: Reform of Passive Labour Market Policies to Support Transitions to Employment (measure ID: 16746)

The reform involves two pilot projects for reforming the unemployment insurance system. These projects will test the labour market effects of a) an increase of the level and coverage of the long-term unemployment benefit and b) an indexation of the standard unemployment benefit to the latest net wage level. Moreover, the Plan includes zero-cost reforms aiming to a) further improve the framework of mutual obligations that currently applies between the public employment service and jobseekers, b) consolidate and streamline unemployment benefits and allowances to improve public spending efficiency, and c) remove disincentives for upskilling/reskilling among the unemployed by retaining their entitlement to unemployment benefits during participation in trainings. The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 31 December 2024.

Investment: Restructuring and rebranding of OAED local PES (KPA2) (measure ID: 16941)

The investment aims to reform Greece’s public employment service (OAED) with a view to improving the quality of its services, and its overall capacity and effectiveness. The investment involves a) an organizational reform of the Public Employment Service (OAED) updating its governance model and establishing a new organizational chart and financial management system; b) the redesign and building renovation of OAED’s 118 local branches for the promotion of employment (KPA2), with a renewed focus on customized matching services, enhanced counselling, and outreach; c) a new communication strategy of OAED; d) the improvement of customer service quality control mechanisms through the measurement and monitoring of effectiveness, efficiency, productivity and customer satisfaction aspects; e) implementation of new forms of profiling and counselling services. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Investment: Digital transformation of the public employment service (OAED) (measure ID: 16942)

The investment focuses on the digital transformation of the public employment service (OAED), with a view to increasing effectiveness of offered services. Notably, the investment foresees the digitisation of the archives of OAED, the purchase by OAED of a number of new

IT systems, both web-based and native applications, and the redesign of some of its current operating systems. The investment also includes a) the expansion of digital services (via

OAEDapp) which shall allow OAED to provide e-services to the unemployed and firms via mobile phones and tablets, and b) a highly sophisticated state-of-the-art matching tool to help

OAED optimize the labour supply-demand matching process. The above investment shall

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 91 lead to a better data management and decision-making system, maximization of resources and higher customer satisfaction. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by

31 December 2025.

    COMPONENT 3.2: EDUCATION, VOCATIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING, AND SKILLS

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan aims to improve the quality, efficiency and effectiveness of the education and lifelong-learning systems. The component includes an investment in horizontal upskilling programmes in digital, green, and financial literacy skills for a total 628 000 beneficiaries. This is accompanied by a reform of the lifelong learning system to improve training provision, and a package of reforms and investments focusing on the vocational education and training (VET) and apprenticeship systems to improve their labour market relevance. Concerning VET, the plan aims to upgrade VET infrastructures and equipment, modernize the existing curricula and develop new professional profiles including in the sectors of energy, environment and digital economy. Moreover, the plan provides for a new strategy for excellence in universities, aimed to enhance their research performance and education quality through investments in upgrading research and educational infrastructures, support to research projects and doctorate projects also in collaboration with the private sector and visiting professorship schemes. These reforms are coupled with investments in the digitalisation of the education system, a large part of which is allocated to interactive learning systems in primary and secondary schools and vouchers for pupils and students from low-income families for the purchase of IT equipment.

The component is in line with the Country Specific Recommendations to invest in education, employability, and skills and to improve digitalisation of the public administration (countryspecific recommendations 3 2020 and 2 2019). It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01).

    COMPONENT 3.3: IMPROVE RESILIENCE, ACCESSIBILITY AND SUSTAINABILITY OF HEALTHCARE

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan focuses on increasing the resilience of the health care system through various interventions. Part of these measures focus on infrastructural, both physical and digital, and operational improvements to modernise and upgrade the hospital system and the network of health centres. Others aim at supporting and enhancing access, efficiency and resilience of the health-care sector. More specifically, these include measures to strengthen public health and prevention, to increase the capacity of the health-care system to deliver mental health and home care services, to support the transition towards a stronger primary health-care sector and to rationalise pharmaceutical spending and support pharmaceutical R&D. The plan on digitisation of health-care systems and services has the objective to promote efficiency, improve access and increase the overall transparency and quality of public spending in the system. It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of

Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No

Significant Harm Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01).

J.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Reform: Reforms and acceleration of investments in the Healthcare Sector - Clawback reduction and rationalization of healthcare expenditure (measure ID: 16816)

The reform of the clawback system shall introduce risk-sharing in the calculation of the clawback by setting a binding target of clawback reduction over the next years, a minimum reduction of clawback amounts by EUR 50 000 000 (2022), EUR 150 000 000 (2023),

EUR 300 000 000 (2024) and EUR 400 000 000 (2025) respectively, from the 2020 levels, to be achieved through the full enforcement of previously adopted and new efficiency enhancing measures and fully in line with EU State aid rules. In addition, the measure foresees the financing of clinical trial, R&D or other investment expenditure by liable companies, limited to the 3-year period 2021-2023, through a partial offset of their clawback liabilities. The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 30 June 2026.

Reform: Reform of the Primary Health Care System (measure ID: 16755)

This reform foresees to 1) implement upgrade and energy efficient renovations and energy efficient measures regarding public infrastructure and medical equipment of at least 50% of the total health centres in the country (156 out of a total of 312), 2) implement an administrative and organisational restructuring to create a unified model of care and retrain staff to act effectively as first-line care, 3) expand the availability of active (where courses have already started) family medicine curricula, so that these are offered by at least 75% of medical schools and introduce an element of family medicine in all medical curricula by Q4

2022 and 4) support the development of an integrated care system by establishing a framework for chronic diseases management. The reform of the primary care interacts with secondary care (especially access to hospital care) and it is expected to lead to improved health services for citizens and support the principle of equal access to health services, efficiency and social cohesion. It is expected that this measure does not do significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measure and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical

Guidance (2021/C58/01). In particular, the measure requires the economic operators carrying out the construction works to ensure that at least 70% (by weight) of the non-hazardous construction and demolition waste (excluding naturally occurring material referred to in

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 108 category 17 05 04 in the European List of Waste established by Decision 2000/532/EC i of

3 May 2000 replacing Decision 94/3/EC i establishing a list of wastes pursuant to Article 1(a) of Council Directive 75/442/EEC i on waste and Council Decision 94/904/EC i establishing a list of hazardous waste pursuant to Article 1(4) of Council Directive 91/689/EEC i on hazardous waste (notified under document number C(2000) 1147)) generated on the construction site shall be prepared for re-use, recycling and other material recovery, including backfilling operations using waste to substitute other materials, in accordance with the waste hierarchy and the EU Construction and Demolition Waste Management Protocol. The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Reform: Implementation of the National Public Health Prevention Program “Spiros Doxiadis” (NPP ”SD”) (measure ID: 16783)

The reform is expected to upgrade the quality of life of the population and the resilience of the health care system with the creation of a very comprehensive system of prevention, primary, secondary and tertiary. This covers several elements on a pilot basis as follows: interventions and screening programs, which aim at reducing the morbidity of diseases with high prevalence in the Greek population: a national program for the promotion of physical exercise and healthy eating, the national alcohol management program, interventions to prevent psychosocial problems in children and the implementation of child dental care prevention program; interventions for the early detection of existing but not clinically visible diseases: the implementation of the national screening programme, based on the introduction of preventive diagnostic tests for cancer and cardiovascular diseases and the national neonatal screening program; interventions aimed at preventing disability, repairing damage, as well as preventing relapses from a clinically visible national program of psychosocial integration and rehabilitation for people with serious psycho-social problems and palliative care for cancer patients; the functional and operational modernisation of the public health system. Ultimately, the aim of the program is to reduce the behavioural risk factors with positive impacts not only on the quality of life of the population but also on the overall access, efficiency and resilience of the health system achieved through the reduced pressure on hospital services.

The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 30 June 2025.

Investment: Project for the construction of a building dedicated to Cellular & Gene Therapies and Hematology Clinic Laboratories within the General Hospital of Thessaloniki

“Papanikolaou” (measure ID: 16793).

The investment foresees the creation of new buildings for the housing of the Laboratories of Cell and Genetic Therapy and Hematology Clinic at Papanikolaou Hospital, in order to keep its services in line with the increased requirements of patient care (malignant haematological diseases) and increasing demand for modern and technologies; it shall also upgrade the existing building for the transfer of laboratories and the day care unit.

    COMPONENT 3.4: INCREASE ACCESS TO EFFECTIVE AND INCLUSIVE SOCIAL POLICIES

This component of the Greek recover and resolution plan aims to promote social inclusion with a particular focus on vulnerable groups, while supporting participation of women in the labour market. A large part of the component is dedicated to early childhood education and care, in particular in the form of subsidies for the creation of 1 000 new childcare units in municipalities and 120 units in large companies. The Plan also allows for labour market activation measures for vulnerable groups including beneficiaries of guaranteed minimum income, refugees, homeless people, Roma and people suffering from autism spectrum disorders. A large-scale training programme for private and public-sector employees on diversity awareness and several small pilots such as on deinstitutionalization of children, support of persons with disabilities and social housing are also key elements of the plan. The component is in line with the Country Specific Recommendations on labour market and social policy (Country Specific Recommendations 2 2020 and 1 2019) and investment (Country

Specific Recommendations 3 2020 and 2 2019). It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article

17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No

    COMPONENT 4.1: MAKING TAXES MORE GROWTH FRIENDLY AND IMPROVING TAX ADMINISTRATION AND TAX COLLECTION

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan comprises targeted reforms and investment to continue improving the functioning of the public revenue administration and fight against tax evasion. Firstly, this component includes tax policy reforms, to facilitate the codification of tax legislation, as well as to introduce incentives to enhance electronic transactions, promote green and digital private investments, and increase the size of enterprises. Secondly, the component contains reforms and investments aiming at the transformation of the public revenue administration, through digitalising processes, and introducing legislative initiatives to combat smuggling and promote the acceleration of VAT refunds.

The component contributes to the digital transition, through the replacement and upgrade of Independent Authority for Public Revenue’s (IAPR) core digital systems, the introduction of automated office and work processes, the digitalisation of audits and controls, as well as the update and improvement of taxpayer e-services.

This component supports addressing the country-specific recommendations on public and private investment (Country Specific Recommendation 3 2020), and structural reforms to improve the functioning of the economy (Country Specific Recommendation 4 2020). It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01).

L.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Investment: Digital transformation of tax audits (measure ID 16611)

IAPR shall upgrade the use of its in-house data and introduce artificial intelligence tools in order to improve public revenue collection, increase the effectiveness of tax audits, and fight smuggling. The project consists of the adoption of a strong data architecture, the development of a common metadata repository, the provision of appropriate software solutions, the development of techniques and tools of artificial intelligence, and the use of machine learning to mine big data. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December

2025.

Reform: Codification and simplification of tax legislation (measure ID 16643)

The Ministry of Finance and IAPR shall simplify and update the legislation for the major tax codes, the customs code and all relevant secondary legal provisions in line with EU best practices. Consistent with the IAPR basic law 4389/2016, the IAPR will take responsibility for carrying out the updating and modernisation of the Code of Tax Procedure, Governor’s decisions and Revenue administration circulars, including drafting the amendments required for the digitalisation and simplification of the tax administration. The Ministry of Finance and

  • N. 
    COMPONENT 4.3: IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF THE JUSTICE SYSTEM

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan comprises a number of wideranging reforms as well as investments aimed at enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of the Greek Justice system by introducing an ambitious revision of the judicial map of the country, addressing infrastructure needs, adopting measures to increase the digital capacities of the Justice system, modernising the function of courts, setting up a judicial police, and broadening and upgrading the education (both initial and life-long) of magistrates and clerical staff. The measures are expected to support addressing the challenges in the country-specific recommendations regarding public and private investment (Country Specific

Recommendation 2 2019, Country Specific Recommendation 3 2020) and structural reforms to improve the functioning of the economy (Country Specific Recommendation 4 2020). It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01).

N.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Investment: New Judicial buildings and renovations (measure ID 16292)

The measure consists of a targeted investment for the construction and renovation of buildings that are part of the judicial system, closely linked with the revision of the judicial map, to maximize judicial efficiency and avoid unnecessary effort and expenses. All properties belonging to or used by the judiciary shall be recorded in an electronic identity registry in order to facilitate monitoring and planning. The newly constructed buildings shall all comply with a Primary Energy Demand (PED) that is at least 20% lower than the NZEB requirement

(nearly zero-energy building, national directives). It is expected that this measure does not do significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation

(EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measure and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm

Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01). In particular, the measure requires the economic operators carrying out the construction works to ensure that at least 70% (by weight) of the non-hazardous construction and demolition waste (excluding naturally occurring material referred to in category 17 05 04 in the European List of Waste established by Decision

2000/532/EC of 3 May 2000 replacing Decision 94/3/EC i establishing a list of wastes pursuant to Article 1(a) of Council Directive 75/442/EEC i on waste and Council Decision 94/904/EC i establishing a list of hazardous waste pursuant to Article 1(4) of Council Directive

91/689/EEC on hazardous waste (notified under document number C(2000) 1147)) generated on the construction site shall be prepared for re-use, recycling and other material recovery, including backfilling operations using waste to substitute other materials, in accordance with the waste hierarchy and the EU Construction and Demolition Waste Management Protocol.

The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Reform: Digital Transformation of Justice (E-Justice) (measure ID 16727)

The digital transformation of the Greek justice system shall be carried out under the supervision of the Ministry of Justice and shall consist of a set of actions that shall increase its

IT capabilities with regard to the digitisation of documents, the enhancement of the recordkeeping system of the courts, the simplification, standardisation and acceleration of procedures through digitalisation, and the interoperability of IT systems of the courts with those of the Ministry of Justice, as well as other national and international authorities and/or databases. All branches of the judiciary (civil, penal and administrative, as well as the Court

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 161 of Audits) shall be covered by this reform. Upon its completion, judges and judicial staff shall dispose of tools and infrastructure enabling them to increase the efficiency of managing the caseload and the speed of administering justice without compromising its quality.

The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Reform: Skills and digital skills for judges and judicial employees (judicial staff) (measure ID 16733)

The National School of Judges shall undergo a number of institutional changes with respect to its function and syllabus; its candidate selection criteria shall also be revised, to provide a more selective and competitive studies environment, while admitting additional categories of students (magistrate’s court judges and court of audits judges); it shall also offer additional courses aiming at the provision of new skills, with emphasis on managerial and digital skills, as well as on topics relevant to the performance of judicial duties, such as ethics, time management, psychology, economic theory and analysis, management of courts and new technologies; the reform shall include the provision of mandatory lifelong training to judges in topics essential for the performance of their duties by trainers also formed in the National

School of Judges. Finally, a new National School for Judicial Clerks shall be created, to provide training and lifelong training to clerical staff on topics essential for the performance of their duties, management and organization of their service, digital skills, procedural and substantive law.

The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 31 December 2024.

Reform: Accelerating the administration of justice (measure ID 16575)

This reform shall accelerate the administration of justice, and contribute to the economic and institutional transformation of the country. The most important element of the reform consists of the projected revision of the judicial map across the country, resulting in a rational reorganization of judicial districts across Greece and the establishment, abolition or redistribution of judicial structures in these districts, based on objective criteria and on the extensive collection of data pertaining to all courts across the country. The reform of the judicial map shall cover all branches of the judiciary (civil, penal and administrative).

Additional actions shall enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of Justice:

• the creation of a judicial police to support and enhance the functioning of Justice, by

contributing know-how to the investigation of complex crime (including financial crime, corruption and money laundering) and by providing a wide array of services of judicial assistance (assisting in the conduct of preliminary examinations and investigations, the enforcement of judgments and the service of documents and procedural acts, executing warrants, enforcing judgements, maintaining court order, assisting in the submittal of, or response to, requests for judicial assistance and carrying out mandates entrusted to it by

the competent courts and public prosecutors),

• the organization of training seminars for presiding judges on the general principles of

court administration,

• amendment of procedural legislation in administrative courts to simplify, digitize and

accelerate trials,

• the introduction of pilot trials in civil courts,

• the establishment of filtering mechanisms regarding the admissibility of legal remedies,

• the reconfiguration of the method for calculating court costs, and

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 162

• the introduction of a temporary scheme for the provision of financial incentives to judicial

clerks, based on objectively measurable individual performance indices and in full consistency with the unified wage grid (Law 4354/2015) without setting any exemption, for the acceleration of the performance of courthouse-related tasks and duties and the

elimination of court backlogs.

To complete the reform, a set of measures shall be adopted to establish and strengthen alternative dispute resolution institutions through the provision of training to legal counsels, the extension of mediation procedures to criminal proceedings and administrative disputes, the provision of financial incentives to parties selecting alternative dispute resolution methods over court proceedings, the strengthening of the arbitration mechanism and the provision of financial incentives to Arbitration and Mediation Centres to establish user-friendly digital systems.

Finally, the creation of an independent office for the systematic collection, processing, aggregation, presentation and monitoring of judicial data shall ensure the proper supervision and monitoring of the function and performance of the judicial system.

The implementation of the reform and shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

    COMPONENT 4.4: STRENGTHEN THE FINANCIAL SECTOR AND CAPITAL MARKETS

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan aims to strengthen the capacity of the financial system to support the development of the economy, through the provision of financing of companies and individuals to develop new activities. It supports addressing the high non-performing exposures (NPEs) and non-performing loans (NPLs) in the Greek banking sector, while also improving access to information regarding the credit profiles of companies and individuals in the market.

The component shall also support addressing private indebtedness and strengthen capital markets. Structural changes in these two areas shall contribute to growth and shall increase

Greece’s economic resilience in view of future shocks.

The reforms under this component consist of:

• Enhanced capital market supervision and trustworthiness

• Strengthening the capacity of the financial system to overcome legacy challenges and

finance the real economy

• Upgrade of the digital infrastructure necessary for the implementation of the new unified

insolvency framework for the restructuring of debt and 2nd chance

• New Loans Promotion-Establishment of the Credit Expansion Observatory

Some of these reforms include actions that address the informational gaps that impede the successful flow of credit and the efficient risk monitoring. These consist of the development of a monitoring registry for private debt, the development of a public credit bureau, a central credit register and a credit expansion observatory. These actions also contribute to the digital transition of the Greek economy, since they rely on information technology.

The measures under this component foster economic and institutional resilience, strengthen crisis preparedness and institutional capacity and therefore support addressing the countryspecific recommendation on the “Structural reforms to improve the functioning of the economy” (Country Specific Recommendation 1 2019 and Country Specific

Recommendation 4 2020). It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU)

2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm Technical

Guidance (2021/C58/01).

O.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Reform: Enhanced capital market supervision and trustworthiness (measure ID 16581)

The reform aims to enhance capital markets supervision by 1) investing into digital transformation of the Hellenic Capital Market Commission (HCMC) digital capacities and digitalising its internal processes and organization, and 2) codifying and modernising the regulatory and legislative framework for capital markets to enhance capital-market’s supervision capacity. The reform shall entry into force by Q1 2021 and the investment in the

IT system by Q4 2025.

Reform: Strengthening the capacity of the financial system to overcome legacy challenges and finance the real economy (measure ID 16957)

This reform consists of three parts. First, it concerns the establishment and operation of a Public Credit Bureau. It shall provide results on the credit worthiness of debtors and eliminate

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 171 information asymmetry between the public sector entities and banks, based on public sector data and information. It shall also include the completion of an IT system to perform solvency assessments. Second, the reform concerns the implementation of the National Strategy for

Private Debt Management and the development of a private debt monitoring register, which shall be completed by Q4 2025. The National Strategy shall include a total of 33 projects, which are divided into three intervention axes. Each intervention axes shall aim at a different aspect of the resolution of private debt management and collectively in accordance with the

National Strategy. The first and third axes include interventions to actively reduce private debt stock by improving the insolvency process and empowering the NPL market respectively. The second axis consists of interventions that aim at preventing future private debt build-up. The main investment under this sub-reform is the development of an IT system for the private debt monitoring register.

Third sub-reform refers to the establishment of a Central Credit Registry (CCR) that would complement the Hercules Asset Protection Scheme, enhancing the NPL secondary market.

The CCR shall be hosted by the Bank of Greece and it shall record on a granular basis the payment history of each individual loan of the customers of all banks and financial institutions and the types of collateral provided . The Central Credit Registry will be complementary to and in full alignment with the existing Tiresias system (private credit bureau), as well the proposed Public Credit Bureau and Monitoring Registry for Private Debt.

It shall enable access to credit information, tackling market failures due to asymmetric information, thus facilitating access to credit. By increasing information regarding the credit history of potential debtors, the CCR shall address the adverse selection problem faced by financial institutions when providing new loans to potential lenders, on which they have incomplete information. This, in turn, shall impact positively on the quantity and quality of investment spending. Furthermore, the CCR shall have beneficial effects on the degree of competition among financial institutions, resulting into lower cost of capital for Greek firms and individual customers. Finally, by providing accurate and timely information on individual loans, the CCR shall facilitate greatly the ability of investors to price risk in the secondary market for NPLs. This shall increase NPL valuations, boost recovery rates and, thereby, help banks to resolve legacy NPL challenges faster, and more efficiently in terms of use of capital. All these should be concluded by Q4 2025.

Reform: Upgrade of the digital infrastructure necessary for the implementation of the new unified insolvency framework for the restructuring of debt and second chance (measure ID

16580)

The reform aims to upgrade the necessary digital infrastructure needed to support the early warning and preventive debt restructuring procedures provided through the new unified/codified legal framework for the management of debt of individuals and legal entities;

This reform shall be completed by Q4 2024.

Reform: New Loans Promotion – Establishment of the Credit Expansion Observatory (measure ID 16576)

The reform concerns the creation of a Credit Expansion Observatory, which shall collect detailed data on the liquidity provided by banks to individuals and legal entities, in order to better design and implement targeted public policies that aim to increase access to finance. It shall monitor market liquidity, independently, as well as in relation to credit expansion, in the context of supporting the economy and making the most of the funding tools to meet liquidity needs of individuals and businesses.

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 172 The investment under this reform shall include also the design development and operationalisation of a data collection IT system that shall function as a tool for monitoring credit expansion and improve the readiness of the State and its relevant policies. It should be completed by Q4 2024.

    COMPONENT 4.5: PROMOTE RESEARCH AND INNOVATION

The key objectives of this component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan are to increase public and private investment in research and development (R&D), reinforce the links between science and businesses, and develop a pioneering R&D infrastructure, with a view to improving Greece’s research and innovation performance. This is expected to be achieved through targeted reforms and investments to increase public and private R&D expenditure, upgrade the country’s research infrastructures, promote research funding, increase the internationalisation of the Greek research ecosystem, and develop research collaborations.

The component also includes the development of an information system for civil protection, which shall inform the competent authorities in real time about physical phenomena and natural disasters, while supporting their cooperation. This investment shall also facilitate the digital transformation, through the development of advanced digital technologies and the digitalisation of civil protection methods, as well as to foster the green transition, by mitigating the impact from climate changes in order to ensure civil protection. The component supports addressing the country-specific recommendations on public and private investment

(Country Specific Recommendation 2 2019 and Country Specific Recommendation 3 2020).

    COMPONENT 4.7: IMPROVE COMPETITIVENESS AND PROMOTE PRIVATE INVESTMENTS AND EXPORTS

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan aims to incentivise private investment and increase economic extroversion by addressing long-term structural issues and creating a business environment conducive to development of economic activity. It consists of measures to encourage the growth of firms' size to achieve economies of scale and help them penetrate foreign markets, lift excessive administrative burdens to businesses, foster compliance and a level-playing field through effective market surveillance, and create a simpler and more predictable regulatory framework. These measures are complemented by the proposal to use loan support under the Recovery and Resilience Facility to facilitate the provision of financial incentives to the private sector, aiming to promote private investments.

This loan support is expected to be channelled to the economy through three different channels, namely financial institutions (through corporate bond purchases or syndicated loans), an equity platform, and the utilisation of a part of Greece’s InvestEU national compartment. The component supports addressing the country-specific recommendation on public and private investment (Country Specific Recommendation 3 2020, and Country

Specific Recommendation 2 2019). It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation

(EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the Do No Significant Harm

Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01).

The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 31 December 2025.

Reform: Ease of doing business (measure ID 16591)

The reform aims to improve the business environment and to ease the administrative and regulatory burden on businesses.

Specifically, it comprises of a series of interventions to reduce the complexity of processes, the cost, and time involved in each of the abovementioned areas, as well as training of public sector staff involved in such processes and outreach activities to key stakeholders. The implementation of the reform shall be completed by 30 June 2024.

Reform: Incentivisation regime for productivity and extroversion of enterprises (increasing the size of enterprises) (measure ID 16598)

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 231 The reform aims to tackle weaknesses associated with the predominantly small size of Greek enterprises. It shall create an array of tax, and other, incentives to encourage the selfemployed and micro, small and medium sized enterprises to increase economies of scale through mergers, conversions, acquisitions and cooperation schemes and platforms such as joint ventures, clusters that shall also promote higher productivity and increased exports.

    TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE

This component of the Greek recovery and resilience plan consists of measures to strengthen the administrative capacity of the Recovery and Resilience Facility Agency, which is the newly established structure exclusively dedicated to the coordination and implementation of

Greece’s recovery and resilience plan. The measure is aimed at providing the necessary assistance to the Greek administration to successfully steer the RRP implementation. It is thus expected to indirectly contribute to RRP’s objectives, as underpinned by the measures included across the four pillars, and to support addressing the relevant Country Specific

Recommendations for Greece i.e. public and private investment (Country Specific Recommendation 2 2019 and Country Specific Recommendation 3 2020), public finances and health care (Country Specific Recommendation 1 2020), and labour market and social policy

(Country Specific Recommendation 2 2020).

S.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Investment: Technical Assistance (measure ID 16968)

The investment consists of six subprojects, namely: 1) development of systems and tools for the organisation of work, 2) purchasing of services from external auditors to carry out audits, inspections and certifications in cases of specific expertise required and the development of an overarching methodological framework for audits, inspections and certifications to support the Recovery and Resilience Facility Agency’s oversight function with respect to the implementation of plan measures, 3) information-raising and publicity actions with respect to key investments and reforms under the plan, 4) conducting studies and purchasing external expertise and technical support in specialised projects, 5) financing expenditure for the daily operation of the Agency (office rent, acquisition of office equipment, coverage of utility bills), and 6) purchase of quality control services for public construction projects to assess compliance with construction contract terms, regulations as well as technical standards. The implementation of subproject 3 shall take place in the context of establishing good governance practices. Relevant actions shall become an integral and permanent feature of the public consultation procedure, and used as a tool to facilitate stakeholder buy-in and ensure sustainable implementation of specific reforms and investments under the plan. Financing of subproject 5 shall be temporary in nature, i.e., insofar it is rendered necessary to support the

Recovery and Resilience Facility Agency to carry out its mandate effectively. The measure also concerns the setting up of the management and audit and control systems. The implementation of the investment shall be completed by 30 June 2026.

SECTION 3: ADDITIONAL ARRANGEMENTS

  • 1. 
    Arrangements for monitoring and implementation of the recovery and resilience plan

    The monitoring and implementation of the recovery and resilience plan of Greece shall take place in accordance with the following arrangements.

The main body responsible for the coordination of the implementation and the monitoring of the recovery and resilience plan will be the Recovery and Resilience Facility Coordination Agency, an independent special public service of the Ministry of Finance, established with the law 4738/2020. The Recovery Resilience Facility Coordination Agency shall also be the responsible body to verify that the set milestones and targets of the recovery and resilience plan have been completed and shall also act as the (single) liaison between the European Commission and the Greek authorities. Specifically, its tasks entail the active monitoring of the progress of the projects, on the basis of the agreed milestones and targets, and the submission of the payment requests to the European Commission upon verification of their completion. The latter shall be accompanied by a management declaration that the funds were used for their intended purposes and in accordance with the principle of sound financial management, as well as by a summary of the audits carried out, including weaknesses

identified and any corrective actions taken.

The overall responsibility for the implementation of each specific measure falls under the competency of the relevant Ministry whose services will support the monitoring of the projects’ progress and maintain close cooperation with the Recovery and Resilience Facility

Coordination Agency.

All measures in the plan shall be implemented by national bodies (“implementing bodies”) appointed by the competent Ministry and shall be responsible for the achievement of the agreed milestones and targets as well as the reporting of all data and documentation to the Recovery and Resilience Facility Coordination Agency through the management information

system that shall be established.

Finally, the Financial Audit Committee (EDEL, which is part of the General Secretariat for Fiscal Policy (State General Accounting Office) of the Ministry of Finance, shall safeguard

the observance of the principles of sound financial management.

  • 2. 
    Arrangements for providing full access by the Commission to the underlying data

    In order to provide full access to the Commission to the underlying relevant data, Greece shall have in place the following arrangements:

The Recovery and Resilience Facility Coordination Agency, as the central coordinating body for Greece’s recovery and resilience plan and its implementation, is responsible for the overall coordination and monitoring of the plan. In particular, it acts as a coordinating body for monitoring progress on milestones and targets, for monitoring and, where appropriate, implementing control and audit activities, and for providing reporting and requests for payments. It coordinates the reporting of milestones and targets, relevant indicators, but also qualitative financial information and other data, such as on final recipients. The data encoding is taking place throughout implementing bodies, which are obliged to report the required data to the Recovery and Resilience Facility Coordination Agency through Management

Information System.

In accordance with Article 24(2) of Regulation (EU) 2021/241, upon completion of the relevant agreed milestones and targets in Section 2.1 of this Annex, Greece shall submit to the

10152/21 ADD 1 FDC/sr 270 Commission a duly justified request for payment of the financial contribution and, where relevant, of the loan. Greece shall ensure that, upon request, the Commission has full access to the underlying relevant data that supports the due justification of the request for payment, both for the assessment of the request for payment in accordance with Article 24(3) of

Regulation (EU) 2021/241 and for audit and control purposes.
