The Independent Authority for Fiscal Responsibility (AIReF) has updated its Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan (RTRP) Monitor to include data for the first quarter of 2026, a period in which contracts were formalised and grants awarded for almost € 1.5 billion.
AIReF’s RTRP Monitor is an interactive data visualisation tool that tracks the implementation of the RTRP by drawing on publicly available information from public administration tender and grant databases. The tool only captures RTRP spending implemented through grants and tenders, without including other execution mechanisms such as staff recruitment, direct payments or minor contracts, among others.
With the data for the first quarter of 2026, contracts have been formalised and grants awarded for a total of € 61 billion across 1.6 million transactions. The number of unique awardees or beneficiaries amounts to 1.4 million, as a single beneficiary may receive more than one grant or contract award.
In the first quarter of 2026, progress was broadly uniform across virtually all components. In terms of subsectors, the largest contribution has been made by regional subsectors, both Autonomous Regions and local corporations.
AIReF’s RTRP Monitor provides a high level of granularity, offering detailed information on the allocation of RTRP funds by subsector, component and investment line. It shows the amounts formalised and awarded against the allocation for each component, together with a breakdown by investment line and .rankings of the RTRP elements receiving the largest share of funds. All the microdata underpinning the tool’s aggregations, figures and tables have been made publicly available for download in a machine-readable format.
