The government on Wednesday stripped
the Audit Court of oversight powers on the National Recovery and
Resilience Plan (NRRP) in an amendment to a civil service reform
decree at the House labour committee.
The court has voiced dismay at reports it would be stripped of
these powers, and court official s are to meet government
representatives on Thursday.
The amendment removes the so-called concurrent control of the
Court on all expenditure of monies from the post-COVID EU
recovery fund.
It also extends by one year, until 30 June 2024, the so-called
shield on the rules on fiscal damage.
The curbing of the court's NRRP oversight powers comes after the
justices criticised delays to the implementation of the plan.
