Neither MinFin nor dev. funds ministry know total expenditure on KPO measures
Neither the Ministry of Finance nor the Ministry of Development Funds and Regional Policy have knowledge of the total amount of expenditure on the implementation of measures under the Poland's national recovery plan KPO, according to the Supreme Audit Office (NIK) in its analysis of the implementation of the budget and monetary policy assumptions for 2024.
"The Supreme Audit Office points out that neither the Minister of Finance nor the Minister of Development Funds and Regional Policy has complete and reliable information on the total amount of expenditure incurred for the implementation of measures under the national recovery plan,’ according to the NIK.
According to NIK data, in 2023-2024, the European Commission paid Poland a total of EUR 20.8 billion from the Recovery and Resilience Facility, including EUR 5 billion in advance payments. However, just over 10 percent of these funds were spent on the implementation of the national recovery plan's objectives.
The remaining nearly 90 percent of the funds were used to manage the state budget's liquidity.
The Supreme Audit Office reports that the implementation of the national recovery plan in 2024 was financed from four sources: the European budget (87.2 percent of expenditure), disbursements (10.4 percent), the state budget (1 percent) and the Polish development fund (1.4 percent).
In total, according to data collected by the Supreme Audit Office, over PLN 10.9 billion (EUR 2.56 mln) was spent on the implementation of the national recovery plan in 2024.
