The Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) is a performance-based instrument and the Commission verifies fulfillment of milestones and targets only in the context of the assessment of payment requests submitted by Member States.
The Early Childhood Intervention is included in the measure 16904 of the Greek Recovery and Resilience Plan. The completion of the project will be assessed by the Commission in the context of milestone 174a, part of the 9th payment request, due by 31 August 2026.
The Commission has frequent exchanges with the Greek authorities aiming at the full and timely delivery of projects. However, the implementation of all the measures and projects in the national plans falls under the responsibility of the Member State.
For additional details on the RRF implementation, the Commission invites the Honourable Member to consult the recovery and resilience scoreboard, which gives an overview of how the implementation of the national recovery and resilience plans is progressing in all Member States, including Greece.
In addition, the European Social Fund Plus supports the development and provision of early childhood education, care services and after-school services/centres for vulnerable children, including children with disabilities, with an estimated investment of approximately EUR 162 million for the period 2025 — 2029.
