Proposal for a

COUNCIL IMPLEMENTING DECISION

amending the Implementing Decision of 13 July 2021 on the approval of the assessment

of the recovery and resilience plan for Italy

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2021/241 of the European Parliament and of the Council of

12 February 2021 establishing the Recovery and Resilience Facility1, and in particular

Article 20(1) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

(1) Following the submission of the national recovery and resilience plan (‘RRP’) by Italy

on 30 April 2021, the Commission proposed its positive assessment to the Council. On

13 July 2021, the Council approved the positive assessment by means of an

implementing decision2 (‘the Council Implementing Decision of 13 July 2021’). The

Council Implementing Decision of 13 July 2021 was amended by the Council

Implementing Decisions of 19 September 20233, of 8 December 20234, of

14 May 20245, of 18 November 20246, of 20 June 20257, of 27 November 20258, and

of 30 March 20269.

(2) On 11 June 2026, Italy made a reasoned request to the Commission to make a proposal

to amend the Council Implementing Decision of 13 July 2021 in accordance with

Article 21(1) of Regulation (EU) 2021/241 on the grounds that the RRP is partially no

longer achievable because of objective circumstances. On that basis, Italy has

submitted an amended RRP.

Amendments based on Article 21 of Regulation (EU) 2021/241

(3) The amendments to the RRP submitted by Italy because of objective circumstances

concern 118 measures.

(4) Italy has requested that two measures be removed due to objective circumstances. This

concerns: M3C1-11 under Investment 1.3 (Diagonal connections) under Mission 3,

Component 1; M5C3-14 under Investment 1.5 (Tax Credit Scheme for Investments in

Southern Italy and the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) under Mission 5, Component 3.

The Council Implementing Decision of 13 July 2021 should be amended accordingly.

(5) Italy has explained that three measures are partially no longer achievable, because of

lack of or change in demand. This concerns M2C1-8 under Investment 2.3 (Innovation

and mechanization in the agricultural and food sectors) under Mission 2, Component

1; M2C2-45 under Investment 1.1 (Development of agri-voltaic systems) under

Mission 2, Component 2; M3C2-5bis under Investment 2.1 (Digitalisation of the

logistic chain) under Mission 3, Component 2. On this basis, Italy has requested that

those measures be amended. The Council Implementing Decision of 13 July 2021

should be amended accordingly.

(6) Italy has explained that five measures are partially no longer achievable due to

changes in market conditions, including unforeseen delays in supply affecting

procurement procedures. This concerns M1C2-15 under Investment 2 (Innovation and

technology of microelectronics) under Mission 1, Component 2; M2C1-9 under

Investment 2.2 (Agri-Solar Park) under Mission 2, Component 1; M2C2-29 under

Investment 4.3 (Installation of charging infrastructures); M7-27 under Investment 8

(Sustainable, circular and secure supply of Critical Raw Materials); M7-41 and M7-42

under Investment 15 (Transizione 5.0) under Mission 7. On this basis, Italy has

requested that those measures be amended. The Council Implementing Decision of 13

July 2021 should be amended accordingly.

(7) Italy has explained that one measure is partially no longer achievable due to technical

impediments delaying the actual implementation. This concerns M3C1-26 and M3C1-

27 under Reform 1.3 (Boosting the efficiency of railway infrastructure in Italy) under

Mission 3, Component 1. On this basis, Italy has requested that those measures be

amended. The Council Implementing Decision of 13 July 2021 should be amended

accordingly.

(8) Italy has explained that two measures are partially no longer achievable due to

inflation and operational issues of technical nature. This concerns M3C1-5 and M3C1-

6 under Investment 1.1 (High-speed railway connections in the Centre and South for

passengers and freight); M3C1-9 under Investment 1.2 (High speed lines in the North

connecting to the rest of Europe) under Mission 3, Component 1. On this basis, Italy

has requested that those measures be amended. The Council Implementing Decision of

13 July 2021 should be amended accordingly.

(9) Italy has explained that one measure is partially no longer achievable due to the

occurrence of extreme weather events triggering the adoption of a Declaration on the

State of Emergency10 in 2025 and 2026 that affected the territories of Calabria,

Sardinia and Sicily. This concerns M2C4-38 under Investment 4.4 (Investments in

sewerage and purification) under Mission 2, Component 4. On this basis, Italy has

requested that this measure be amended. The Council Implementing Decision of

13 July 2021 should be amended accordingly.

10 Deliberation of the Council of Ministers of 4 June 2025 declaring the State of Emergency for the

Metropolitan Cities of Catania and Messina; Deliberation of the Council of Ministers n. 157 of

26 January 2026 declaring the State of Emergency for the territories of Calabria, Sicily and Sardinia.

EN 3 EN

(10) Italy has explained that nine measures have been amended to implement better

alternatives in order to achieve their original ambition. This concerns M1C2-34 under

Investment 9 (Scale-up measure: Transition 4.0) under Mission 1, Component 2;

M2C2-35bis under Investment 4.4.2 (Strengthening of the regional public transport

railway fleet with zero emission trains and universal service); M2C2-43 under

Investment 5.4 (Equity injection into the Green Transition Fund (“GTF”) managed by

CDP Venture Capital SGR) under Mission 2, Component 2; M2C2-47 under

Investment 1.2 (Promotion of renewable energy sources for energy communities and

jointly acting renewables self-consumers); M2C4-39 and M2C4-40 under Investment

4.5 (Grant scheme for investments on water infrastructure) under Mission 2,

Component 4; M3C1-20 under Investment 1.8 (Upgrading railway stations) under

Mission 3, Component 1; M7-31 under Investment 11 (Scale-up: Strengthening of the

M7-44 under Investment 16 (Support to SMEs for self-production from renewable

energy sources); M7-49 under Investment 17 (Financial instrument for energy

renovations of public residential housing) under Mission 7 On this basis, Italy has

requested that those measures be amended. The Council Implementing Decision of 13

July 2021 should be amended accordingly.

(11) Italy has explained that 93 measures have been amended to implement better

alternatives that allow the administrative burden to be reduced and simplify the

Council Implementing Decision, while still achieving the objectives of those

measures. This concerns: M1C1-26 under Investment 1.1 (Digital Infrastructure);

M1C1-45 under Reform 1.4 (Reform of civil justice); M1C1-46 under Reform 1.5

accordingly.

(12) Following the removal and decrease in the level of implementation of measures in

accordance with Article 21 of Regulation (EU) 2021/241, Italy has requested to use

the resources freed up by the removal of measures and decrease in the level of their

implementation toadd two new measures and increase the level of implementation of

eight measures. This concerns M1C2-34 under Investment 9 (Scale-up measure:

Transition 4.0) under Mission 1, Component 2; M2C2-35bis under Investment 4.4.2

(Strengthening of the regional public transport railway fleet with zero emission trains

(Support to SMEs for self-production from renewable energy sources); M7-49 under

Investment 17 (Financial instrument for energy renovations of public residential

EN 6 EN

housing) under Mission 7. On this basis, Italy has requested that the level of

implementation of eight measures be increased and that two new measures be added.

The Council Implementing Decision of 13 July 2021 should be amended accordingly.

Corrections of clerical errors

(13) Two clerical errors have been identified in the text of the Council Implementing

Decision of 13 July 2021, affecting two milestones and targets in two measures under

two components. The Council Implementing Decision of 13 July 2021 should be

amended to correct these clerical errors that do not reflect the content of the RRP

submitted to the Commission on 30 April 2021, as agreed between the Commission

and Italy. Those clerical errors relate to M1C2-31 of Investment 7 (National

Connectivity Fund) under Mission 1, Component 2; M4C1-23 of Investment 3.4

(Teaching and advanced university skills) under Mission 4, Component 1. Those

corrections do not affect the implementation of the measures concerned.

Commission’s assessment

(14) The Commission has assessed the amended RRP against the assessment criteria laid

down in Article 19(3) of Regulation (EU) 2021/241.

Contribution to the REPowerEU objectives

(15) In accordance with Article 19(3), point (da), of, and criterion 2.12 of Annex V to,

Regulation (EU) 2021/241, the REPowerEU chapter is expected to effectively

contribute to a large extent (rating A) to energy security, the diversification of the

Union’s energy supply, an increase in the uptake of renewables and in energy

efficiency, an increase of energy storage capacities or the necessary reduction of

dependence on fossil fuels before 2030.

(16) The amendments concerning Reform 1 (Streamlining permitting procedures for

renewable energy at central and local level); Investment 1 (Scale-up measure: Smart

grids); Investment 2 (Scale-up measure : Interventions to increase the resilience of

power grid); Investment 3 (Scale-up measure: Production of Hydrogen in brownfield

sites (Hydrogen Valleys); Investment 4 (Tyrrhenian link); Investment 5 (SA.CO.I.3);

Investment 7 (Smart National Transmission Grid); Investment 8 (Sustainable, circular

and secure supply of Critical Raw Materials); Investment 11 (Strengthening of the

regional public transport railway fleet with zero emission trains and universal service);

Investment 13 (Adriatic Line Phase 1 (Sulmona compressor station and Sestino-

Minerbio gas pipeline); Investment 14 (Cross-border gas export infrastructure);

Investment 15 (Transizione 5.0); Investment 16 (Support to SMEs for self-production

from renewable energy sources); Investment 17 (Financial instrument for energy

renovations of public residential housing) and Investment 18 (Scale-up measure:

Private and light commercial vehicle fleet renewal program with electric vehicles) do

not change the overall assessment that implementation of the measures included in the

REPowerEU chapter are expected to contribute, in particular, to supporting the

objectives in Article 21c(3), points (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) of Regulation

2021/241. The chapter effectively contributes to a large extent to energy security, the

diversification of the Union’s energy supply, an increased uptake of renewables and

energy efficiency, and the reduction of dependence on fossil fuels before 2030.

Therefore, the amended plan effectively contributes to the objectives of Article 19(3),

point (da).

Contribution to the green transition including biodiversity

EN 7 EN

(17) In accordance with Article 19(3), point (e), of, and criterion 2.5 of Annex V to,

Regulation (EU) 2021/241, the amended RRP contains measures that contribute to a

large extent (rating A) to the green transition, including biodiversity, or to addressing

the challenges resulting therefrom. The measures supporting climate objectives

account for an amount which represents 37% of the amended RRP’s total allocation

and 71.9% of the total estimated costs of measures in the REPowerEU chapter

calculated in accordance with the methodology set out in Annex VI to Regulation

(EU) 2021/241. In accordance with Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2021/241, the

amended RRP is consistent with the information included in the National Energy and

Climate Plan 2021-2030.

(18) The amendments to the contribution to the green transition relate to the decrease in

allocation for a number of measures across several missions and components. The

reduction was partially offset by a number of new investments and measures with an

increased level of implementation. The decrease in allocation concerned Investment

2.2 (Agri-solar Park) under Mission 2, Component 1. The increase in Investment 1.2

(Promotion of renewable energy communities and jointly acting renewables self-

consumers), together with the increase in allocation for Investment 4.4.2 (Renewal of

the regional public transport railway fleet with clean fuels trains and universal

service), Investment 5.1 (Net Zero Technologies) and the creation of Investment 4.6

(Diagnostic trains), Investment 5.5 (Green Tax Credit) and the increase in green

tagging also for Investment 5.4 (Equity injection into the Green Transition Fund

(“GTF”) managed by CDP Venture Capital SGR) more than compensated the decrease

in Investment 1.1 (Development of agri-voltaic systems) and in Investment 4.3

(Installation of charging infrastructures) under Mission 2, Component 2. An increase

in allocation concerned Investment 4.5 (Grant scheme for investments on water

infrastructures) under Mission 2, Component 4. Additionally, under Mission 3,

Component 1, the reduction in allocation for Reform 1.3 (Boosting the efficiency of

railway infrastructure in Italy) under Mission 3, Component 1 was partially offset by

an increase in allocation for Investment 1.8 (Upgrading railway stations). The decrease

in also concerned Investment 6 (Innovation Programme for Housing Quality) under

Mission 5, Component 2; and in Investment 1.1 (Community Health Houses to

improve territorial health assistance) under Mission 6, Component 1. Finally under

Mission 7, the decrease in allocation concerning the contribution to the green

transition in Investment 8 (Sustainable, circular and secure supply of Critical Raw

Materials); Investment 15 (Transizione 5.0) under Mission 7 was more than off-set by

the increase in allocation in Investment 11 (Scale-up: Strengthening of the regional

public transport railway fleet with zero emission trains and universal service);

Investment 16 (Support to SMEs for self-production from renewable energy sources);

Investment 17 (Financial instrument for energy renovations of public residential

housing).

(19) Overall, the measures in the amended RRP continue to significantly contribute to

Italy’s green transition. Due to the differing climate tagging content of the increase

measure and the decreased measures, the amendments to Italy’s RRP entail a net

decrease in the overall contribution to the climate target of the RRP by 0.1 percentage

points to 37% from 37.1%. The scope of the amendments does not change the overall

assessment of this criterion.

Contribution to the digital transition

(20) In accordance with Article 19(3), point (f), of, and criterion 2.6 of Annex V to,

Regulation (EU) 2021/241, the amended RRP contains measures that contribute to a

EN 8 EN

large extent (rating A) to the digital transition or to addressing the challenges resulting

from it. The measures supporting digital objectives account for an amount which

represents 26.4% of the amended RRP’s total allocation calculated in accordance with

the methodology set out in Annex VII to that Regulation.

(21) The decrease in allocation concerns Investment 2 (Innovation and technology of

microelectronics) under Mission 1, Component 2 and Investment 2.1 (Digitalization of

the logistic chain) under Mission 3, Component 2.

(22) Overall, the measures in the amended RRP continue to contribute to Italy’s digital

transition: due to the differing digital tagging content of the decreased measures, the

amendments to Italy’s RRP entail a net decrease of 0.1 percentage points to 26.4%

from 26.5%. The limited scope of these amendments does not change the overall

assessment of this criterion.

Costing

(23) In accordance with Article 19(3), point (i), of, and criterion 2.9 of Annex V to,

Regulation (EU) 2021/241, the justification provided in the amended RRP on the

amount of the estimated total cost of the RRP is to a medium extent (rating B)

reasonable and plausible, is in line with the principle of cost efficiency and is

commensurate to the expected national economic and social impact.

(24) The amount of the estimated total cost of the amended RRP is in line with the nature

and type of the envisaged reforms and investments. As a result, cost estimates for most

of the measures in the amended RRP are deemed reasonable and plausible. Italy has

provided sufficient information and evidence that the amount of the estimated total

cost is not covered by existing or planned Union financing. Finally, the estimated total

cost of the amended RRP is in line with the principle of cost efficiency and

commensurate with the expected national economic and social impact. Therefore, a

rating B is warranted for the amended RRP.

Any other assessment criteria

(25) The Commission considers that the amendments put forward by Italy do not affect the

positive assessment of the RRP set out in the Council Implementing Decision

10160/21 of 13 July 2021 on the approval of the assessment of the RRP for Italy

regarding the relevance, effectiveness, efficiency and coherence of the RRP against the

assessment criteria laid down in Article 19(3), points (a), (b), (c), (d), (db), (g), (h), (j)

and (k).

Positive assessment

(26) Following the positive assessment by the Commission of the amended RRP, with the

finding that the RRP satisfactorily complies with the criteria for assessment set out in

Regulation (EU) 2021/241, in accordance with Article 20(2) of and Annex V to that

Regulation, the reforms and investment projects necessary for the implementation of

the amended RRP, the relevant milestones, targets and indicators, and the amount

made available from the Union for the implementation of the amended RRP should be

set out.

Financial contribution

(27) The estimated total costs of Italy’s amended RRP is EUR 194 435 381 164. As the

amount of the estimated total cost of the amended RRP is higher than the updated

maximum financial contribution available for Italy, the financial contribution

determined in accordance with Article 4a of Regulation (EU) 2021/1755 of the

EN 9 EN

European Parliament and of the Council11, and with Article 20(4) and Article 21a(6) of

Regulation (EU) 2021/241 that is allocated for Italy’s amended RRP should be equal

to EUR 71 779 623 788. Therefore, the financial contribution made available to Italy

1. DESCRIPTION OF REFORMS AND INVESTMENTS

A. MISSION 1 COMPONENT 1

Axis 1 - Digitalization of the Public Administration: Axis 1 of component M1C1 of the Italian

recovery and resilience plan contains measures that aim to foster the digitalisation of the Italian public

administration and includes seven investments and three reforms. Investments aim in particular at: (i)

rationalising and consolidating existing digital infrastructures of the public administration; (ii)

fostering the uptake of cloud computing, (iii) with particular attention to the harmonisation and

interoperability of platforms and data services, the implementation of the ‘once-only principle’ and the

accessibility of data through a catalogue of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs); (iv)

improving the availability, efficiency and accessibility of all digital public services with the aim of

increasing the level of adoption and users’ satisfaction, (v) strengthening Italy’s defences against the

risks posed by cybercrime, (vi) fostering the digital transformation of large central administrations;

(vii) tackling the digital divide by strengthening citizens’ digital skills. Reforms under this axis aim in

particular at (i) streamlining and accelerating the procurement process for Information and

Communication Technologies (ICT) solutions by the public administration; (ii) supporting the digital

transformation of the public administration, and (iii) removing obstacles to the adoption of cloud by

public administrations and streamlining data exchange processes between public administrations.

The investments and reforms under this component shall contribute to addressing the Country-

Specific Recommendations addressed to Italy in 2020 and 2019 on the need to “improve the

effectiveness of public administration, including by investing in the skills of public employees, by

accelerating digitalisation, and by increasing the efficiency and quality of local public services”

(Country-Specific Recommendation 3, 2019), and to “focus investment on the green and digital

transition, in particular on […] reinforced digital infrastructure to ensure the provision of essential

services” (Country-Specific Recommendation 3, 2020).

Axis 2 - Justice: The performance of the Italian justice system remains far from that of other Member

States in terms of duration of proceedings, as outlined in the latest report of the European Commission

on the efficiency of justice (CEPEJ). Axis 2 of component M1C1 of the recovery and resilience plan

contains measures that aim to make the judicial system more efficient by reducing the length of

proceedings and bringing Italy closer to the EU median. This component addresses the Country-

specific recommendations addressed to Italy in 2020 and 2019 on reducing the length of civil trials

and on improving the effectiveness of the fight against corruption (Country-specific recommendations

4, 2019 and 4, 2020). Furthermore, the digitisation of the justice system is also relevant for the digital

transition.

Axis 3 – Public administration: Axis 3 of component M1C1 of the recovery and resilience plan

contains measures that aim to reform the Italian public administration and improve administrative

capacity. Italy ranks below EU-27 average both for government effectiveness and for trust in

government. Italian public administration reforms were affected by a serious implementation gap of

top-down reforms and the scarce recognition and diffusion of valuable bottom-up innovations.

Administrative capacity is very low. Efforts to strengthen the strategic planning capacity, monitoring

and evaluation mechanisms, and evidence-based policymaking instruments should continue. The main

objective of this component is to enhance the administrative capacity of the Italian public

administrations at central and local levels, both in terms of human capital (selection, competences,

and careers) and in terms of simplification of administrative procedures. This section presents the

overarching structural human resources strategy, ranging from the selection processes to career paths.

The reform includes also actions to simplify procedures. Investments in new digital toolkits and

2

strengthened actions on lifelong learning are included in Component 1 of Mission 1. This component

addresses the Country-specific recommendations addressed to Italy in 2020 and 2019 on improving

the effectiveness of public administration (Country-specific recommendation 3, 2019 and Country-

specific recommendation 4, 2020).

Axis 4 – Public procurement and payments by the administration: Axis 4 of component M1C1 of

the recovery and resilience plan contains measures that aim to reform certain key aspects of the Italian

public procurement legislative framework and to reduce late payments by public administrations at

central, regional and local, as well as regional health authorities. The main objective of the reform is

to simplify public procurement rules, increase legal certainty for businesses and accelerate the award

of public contracts while maintaining procedural guarantees in terms of transparency and equal

treatment. These reforms support therefore the timely realization of the infrastructures and projects

financed by the Plan.

Axis 5 – Fiscal-structural reforms (Taxation and public expenditure): Axis 5 of component M1C1

of the recovery and resilience includes several reforms aimed at supporting the sustainability of Italy’s

public finances (country-specific recommendation 1, 2019). On the revenue side, the reforms aim at

improving the tax collection process, encouraging tax compliance and fight tax evasion, in order to

reduce compliance costs for taxpayers and increase revenues for the general government, contributing

to improving the sustainability of public finances. On the expenditure side, the reforms aim at

improving the efficiency of public expenditure, both at the central level, by strengthening the existing

framework for yearly spending reviews, and at the subnational level, by completing the reform of

fiscal relations across different levels of government.

A.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support

Axis 1- Digitalization of the Public Administration

Investment 1.1 - Digital infrastructure

The objective of this investment is to ensure that the systems, datasets and applications of the public

administration are hosted in data centres with high quality standards for security, performance,

scalability, European interoperability and energy efficiency. The investment consists in the migration

of the datasets and applications of the public administration towards the PSN or towards secure

certified public cloud providers.

Investment 1.2 - Cloud enablement for local PA

The objective of this investment is to migrate the datasets and applications of a substantial part of the

local public administration to a secure cloud infrastructure, allowing each administration the freedom

to choose within a set of certified public cloud environments.

The measure also envisages a “migration as a service” support package to administrations

encompassing: (i) the initial assessment, (ii) the procedural/administrative support needed to launch

the effort, (iii) the negotiation of the necessary external support and (iv) the overall project

management over the course of execution. A team supervised by the Ministry for Technological

Innovation and Digital Transition (MITD) is expected to identify and certify a broad list of qualified

providers and to negotiate a set of standard support packages tailored to the size of the administration

and the services involved in the migration.

Investment 1.3 - Data and interoperability

The objective of this investment is to ensure the full interoperability of key datasets and services

across central and local public administrations. The measure consists in the set up of a National

Digital Data Platform (“Piattaforma Digitale Nazionale Dati”) enabling the interoperability of datasets

3

through a catalogue of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) shared across central and local

administrations.

Investment 1.4 - Digital services and citizen experience

The objective of this investment is to develop an integrated and citizen-oriented ecosystem of digital

public services, ensure their widespread adoption across central and local administrations and enhance

overall user experience.

The measure :

(i) defines reusable service delivery models ensuring full accessibility requirements (Investment

1.4.1 - Citizen experience - Improvement of the quality and the usability of digital public

services);

(ii) increases the accessibility of digital public services (Investment 1.4.2 - Citizen inclusion:

Accessibility improvement of digital public services);

(iii) entails the adoption of the digital application for payments between citizens and public

administrations (PagoPa) and the adoption of the “IO” app (Investment 1.4.3 - Adoption scale

up of PagoPA platform services and the “IO” app);

(iv) fosters the adoption of National Digital Identity platforms (Sistema Pubblico di Identità

Digitale, SPID and Carta d’Identità Elettronica, CIE) and of the national registry (Anagrafe

nazionale della popolazione residente, ANPR) (Investment 1.4.4 - Adoption scale up of the

National Digital Identity platforms (SPID, CIE) and the national registry (ANPR));

(v) sets up a single platform for notifications (Investment 1.4.5 - Digitization of public notices);

(vi) entails the adoption of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) (Investment 1.4.6 - Mobility as a Service

for Italy, with this last measure being financed on the basis of non-repayable financial support).

Investment 1.5 - Cybersecurity

The objective of this investment is to strengthen Italy’s defences against the risks posed by

cybercrime, notably through the implementation of a ‘National Perimeter for Cyber Security’ (PSNC),

in line with the security requirements set out in the Directive (EU) 2016/1148 on security of network

and information systems (NIS Directive), and by strengthening national cyber-defence capabilities of

technical inspection and risk monitoring.

The measure envisages the development of a state-of-the-art, integrated system, tightly

interconnecting different entities across the country and connecting internationally with partners and

trusted technology providers. This is articulated on four pillars: (i) Strengthen front line capabilities

towards the public and companies/entities to manage alerts and actual publicly recognized events; (ii)

Build/strengthen the country’s inspection and audit capabilities of hardware and software used by

subjects with essential functions to certify trustworthiness/pre-empt threats; (iii) Power up units of law

enforcement and cyber units within the Police forces in charge of investigations of criminal activities;

(iv) Strengthen significantly cyber asset and human resources in charge of national security and

response to cyber threats.

Investment 1.6 - Digital transformation of large central administrations

The objective of this investment is to increase the efficiency and simplify the procedures of the main

central administrations – including (i) the Ministry of Interior, (ii) the Ministry of Justice, (iii) the

National Social Security Institute (INPS) and National Institute for Insurance against Accidents at

work (INAIL), (iv) the Ministry of Defence, (v) the Council of State, and (vi) the Finance Police. The

investment consists of the re-engineering or the digitisation of a set of processes or activities

orservices within their remit.

4

Investment 1.7 - Basic digital skills

The objective of this investment is to reduce the share of population at risk of digital exclusion via the

provision of digital education. The measure consists of the participation of individuals in the Digital

Civil Service and in digital education and/or digital facilitation activities.

Reform 1.1 - ICT Procurement

The objective of this reform is to ensure that the public administration may procure Information and

Communication Technologies (ICT) solutions in a more timely and more efficient way by

streamlining and accelerating the procurement process for ICT services and assets.

The implementation of the reform shall consist in three lines of actions. First, a single database

containing a white list of economic operators authorized to provide goods and services to public

administrations shall be set-up and a dedicated technological infrastructure shall be introduced to

allow the certification of suppliers. Second, a simplified approach (“fast track”) to streamline ICT

purchases for PNRR projects shall be adopted. Third, a digital procurement service shall be set up,

with the aim to (i) include only certified suppliers (economic operators may request at any time to be

certified in line with art. 64 of Directive 2014/24/EU); (ii) allow to quickly identify suppliers meeting

a specified need (e.g. through a configurator); (iii) provide an intuitive user experience for

administrations (e.g. clear description of the services offered, comparative evaluation of suppliers).

This overall setup shall build on the existing capabilities of CONSIP, the Italian state entity for

procurement.

Reform 1.2 - Transformation Support

The objective of this reform is to support the digital transformation of all central and local public

administrations through the set-up of a dedicated “Digital PA transformation office”. The

transformation office shall consist in a temporary technology competent resource pool that shall

orchestrate and support the migration effort and the centralized negotiation of “packages” of certified

external support.

In addition, the measure envisages the set up a company focused on software development &

operations management to support the digital step-up of central administrations. The transformation

office shall in particular support public administration in the implementation of Investments 1.1 to 1.7

included under this component and shall also support the implementation of investments and reforms

in digitalization of healthcare included in Mission 6.

Reform 1.3 - Cloud First and interoperability

The aim of this reform is to remove the obstacles to cloud adoption and streamline the bureaucracy

that slows down the data exchange processes between public administrations by introducing a set of

incentives and obligations aimed at facilitating the migration to cloud and removing procedural

constraints to the broad adoption of digital services.

The reform shall entail three lines of action. First, as cloud solutions shall drive cost efficiency in

spending in Information and communication technology (ICT), after a predefined “grace period” (e.g.

three-years after the launch of the transformation), administrations that did not adhere to the cloud

transformation shall see a restriction in their ICT spending budget.

Second, as part of the incentives for cloud migration, the current public accounting rules for expenses

related to cloud services shall be revised. Given that the migration to the cloud currently involves a

transfer of budgets from capital expenditures to operational expenditures, public accounting rules for

5

expenses related to cloud services shall be revised in order to not disincentivize cloud migration for

public administrations.

Third, norms related to data interoperability rules shall be revised, in compliance with the provisions

on open data and processing of personal data and current procedures for data exchange between

public administrations shall be simplified to streamline procedural aspects and speed up the

implementation of interoperability between public administration databases. Furthermore, digital

domicile shall be reviewed and integrated with the national resident registry (ANPR) to allow certain

and secure digital correspondence between citizens and public administrations.

Axis 2 - Justice

Reform 1.4 - Civil justice

The objective of this reform is to shorten the length of civil proceedings and address civil courts’

backlog. The reform consists of the adoption of legislative measures to reduce the number of

incoming cases in courts, simplify existing procedures, and increase courts’ productivity.

Reform 1.5 - Criminal justice

The objective of this reform is to shorten the length of criminal proceedings. The reform consists in

the adoption of actions that simplify existing procedures and increase courts’ productivity.

Reform 1.6 - Insolvency

The reform is aimed at digitalising and enhance insolvency proceedings introducing early warning

mechanisms prior to insolvency, the specialisation of courts and pre-courts institutions to manage all

phases of insolvency proceedings more effectively including through training and specialisation for

members of the judicial and administrative authorities.

Reform 1.7 - Tax courts

The aim of the reform is to make the enforcement of tax law more effective and to decrease the high

amount of appeals at the Court of Cassation.

Reform 1.8 - Digitalisation of the justice system

The objective of this reform is to digitise civil and criminal proceedings. This reform consists of the

introduction of a mandatory electronic filing of documents, the establishment of an electronic

workflow for civil proceedings, the digitalisation of the first instance criminal proceedings, and the

creation of a database of civil law decisions.

Investment 1.8 - Recruitment procedures for civil, criminal and administrative courts

The objective of this measure is to increase the quality of justice by supporting the activities of the

administrative, civil, and criminal Courts, as well as of the territorial and central services of the

Ministry of Justice responsible for the enforcement of the RRP and the digital transition in the justice

system. The investment consists of the temporary hiring of staff for the office of the trial and of

technical and administrative personnel supporting the implementation of RRP objectives.

6

Axis 3 – Public administration

Reform 1.9 - Public employment reform and simplification reform

The objective of this reform is to reinforce the public employment framework and simplify

administrative procedures to the benefit of businesses and citizens. The reform consists of the

adoption of a number of measures removing unnecessary obligations, introducing silent-consent

mechanisms, simplifying communication, uniforming regimes shared with Regions and

municipalities, making data on Sportello Unico Attività Produttive (SUAP) and Sportello Unico

Edilizia (SUE) accessible on the digital platform www.impresainungiorno.gov.it, and defining a set of

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to steer organizational change in administrations.

Reform 1.9bis - Reform for accelerating the implementation of cohesion policy

The reform aims to accelerating the implementation and efficiency of cohesion policy in

complementarity with the NRRP. It shall foresee the date of the approval of the strategic plan of the

single special economic zone. The national legislation requires the opinion of the Unified Conference

before its conversion into Law as provided for in the Legislative Decree n°281/1997. In accordance

with Article 9 of Regulation (EU) 2021/241, the reform may receive support from other Union

Programmes and instruments provided that such support does not cover the same cost. The RRF does

not cover any costs of the reform.

Investment 1.9 - Provide technical assistance and strengthen capacity building for the

implementation of the Italian recovery and resilience plan

The objective of this investment is to reinforce administrative capacity for the implementation of the

Italian Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP). The investment consists of the temporary recruitment of

a pool of experts that will provide technical assistance to administrations and reinforce their capacity

to implement specific initiatives envisaged under the RRP and includes training programmes.

Axis 4 – Public procurement and payments by public administrations

Reform 1.10 - Reform of the public procurement legislative framework

The objective of this reform is to enhance the qualification and professionalisation of contracting

authorities, increase competition, simplify and digitalize the procedures of central purchasing bodies,

and operationalise the national e-Procurement System. To this end, the reform includes the adoption

of legal acts, including amendments to the Public Procurement Code.

Reform 1.11 - Reduction of late payments by public administrations and health authorities

The objective of the reform is to address bottlenecks causing delays in the execution of payments

efficacy of audits and controls, and reduce compliance costs for taxpayers, through the adoption and

enforcement of targeted legislative and regulatory measures.

Reform 1.13 - Reform of the spending review framework

The objective of this reform is to increase the efficacy of the national spending review framework.

The reform consists in the commitment to undertake yearly spending reviews over the 2023-2025

period and to improve the practice of green and gender budgeting.

Reform 1.14 - Reform of the subnational fiscal framework

The objective of this reform is to increase the transparency of fiscal relations across the different

levels of government. The reform consists in the definition of the essential levels of services for the

“fiscal federalism” for regions with ordinary status in at least two policy areas and the adoption of

legals acts defining the “fiscal federalism” for provinces and metropolitan cities.

Reform 1.15 - Reform of public accounting rules

The objective of this reform is to implement a single accrual accounting system for the public sector,

net of State-owned companies. The reform consists in the adoption of the conceptual framework, the

set of accrual accounting standards and the multidimensional chart of accounts, as well as in the

delivery of trainings for the transition to the new accrual accounting system.

Investment 1.10 - Support to qualification and eProcurement

A.3. Description of the reforms and investments for the loan

Investment 1.1 - Digital infrastructure

The objective of this investment is to ensure that the systems, datasets and applications of the public

administration are hosted in data centres with high quality standards for security, performance, scalability,

European interoperability and energy efficiency. The investment consists in the migration of the datasets and

applications of the public administration towards the PSN or towards secure certified public cloud providers.

Investment 1.2 - Cloud enablement for local PA

The objective of this investment is to migrate the datasets and applications of a substantial part of the local

public administration to a secure cloud infrastructure, allowing each administration the freedom to choose

within a set of certified public cloud environments.

The measure also envisages a “migration as a service” support package to administrations encompassing: (i)

the initial assessment, (ii) the procedural/administrative support needed to launch the effort, (iii) the

negotiation of the necessary external support and (iv) the overall project management over the course of

execution. A team supervised by the Ministry for Technological Innovation and Digital Transition (MITD) is

expected to identify and certify a broad list of qualified providers and to negotiate a set of standard support

packages tailored to the size of the administration and the services involved in the migration.

Investment 1.4 - Digital services and citizen experience

The objective of this investment is to develop an integrated and citizen-oriented ecosystem of digital public

services, ensure their widespread adoption across central and local administrations and enhance overall user

experience.

The measure:

(vii) defines reusable service delivery models ensuring full accessibility requirements (Investment 1.4.1 -

Citizen experience - Improvement of the quality and the usability of digital public services);

(viii) increases the accessibility of digital public services (Investment 1.4.2 - Citizen inclusion: Accessibility

improvement of digital public services);

(ix) entails the adoption of the digital application for payments between citizens and public administrations

(PagoPa) and the adoption of the “IO” app (Investment 1.4.3 - Adoption scale up of PagoPA platform

services and the “IO” app);

(x) fosters the adoption of National Digital Identity platforms (Sistema Pubblico di Identità Digitale, SPID

and Carta d’Identità Elettronica, CIE) and of the national registry (Anagrafe nazionale della

popolazione residente, ANPR) (Investment 1.4.4 - Adoption scale up of the National Digital Identity

platforms (SPID, CIE) and the national registry (ANPR));

(xi) sets up a single platform for notifications (Investment 1.4.5 - Digitization of public notices);

(xii) entails the adoption of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) (Investment 1.4.6 - Mobility as a Service for

Italy, with this last measure being financed on the basis of non-repayable financial support).

Investment 1.6 - Digital transformation of large central administrations

The objective of this investment is to increase the efficiency and simplify the procedures of the main central

administrations – including (i) the National Social Security Institute (INPS) and National Institute for

Insurance against Accidents at work (INAIL), (ii) the Judicial system, (iii) the Ministry of Defence, (iv) the

Ministry of Interior, (v) the Finance Police. The investment consists of the re-engineering and the digitisation

of a set of priority processes, activities, and services within their remit.
