The Recovery & Resilience Facility: questions & answers and factsheet
What are recovery and resilience plans?
Member States prepare recovery and resilience plans that set out a coherent package of reforms and
investment initiatives to be implemented up to 2026 to be supported by the RRF. These plans will be
assessed by the Commission and approved by the Council.
When will Member States present their Recovery and Resilience Plans?
As a rule, Member States are invited to notify their plans before 30 April but can do so at any point
in time until mid-2022. 30 April is an orientation date, not a deadline.
In order to ensure that the plans have the necessary balance and quality, some Member States will
need a few more weeks to finalise their plans.
Drawing-up plans for reforms and investments for the next six years while fighting the pandemic is
objectively a challenging task and we need to get this right.
Quality of the plans should be the first priority. A good quality plan will not only allow for a smooth
adoption process but also facilitate implementation and payments in the years to come.
