Context

This dataset is a summary of the information provide on the webpage of the European Commission website on the Recovery and Resilience Facility part of the initiative known as #NextGenerationEU.

This dataset has been created to support my publications on https://robertolofaro.com.

If you search for "recovery and resilience facility status", the first link that Google returns is this European Commission webpage.

The Recovery and Resilience Facility is accessible to the current 27 European Union (henceforth, EU) Member States, and contains both a "grants" and a "loans" components.

It was initiated in summer 2020 to support EU Member States in both recovering from the immediate impacts of the COVID-19 crisis, and to improve resilience in the event of future crisis, while also accelerating the dual digital and green transitions.

The first disbursements are expected to start in July 2021- you can read more details about the initiative, amounts involved, and overall workflow (including the financial schedule) at the link provided above.

The dataset will be updated as new information will be made available on that page, eventually should cover all the EU 27 (as of 2021-06-08, 23 Member States had provided a national recovery and resilience plan, as communicated by the European Commission President on 2021-06-08

On 2021-07-13 also Malta presented its plan, while between 2021-06-16 and 2021-07-23 the following countries received an endorsement from the European Commission:

2021-07-16	Ireland
2021-07-19	Czechia

Accordingly, the dataset initially released on 2021-06-09 has been updated, and a new version, containing also the columns concerning the approval, has been added.

This latest file will be replaced in the future by other versions, as the plan deliveries by EU Member States will continue, and as the European Commission will issue new endorsements.

After the completion of the latter, a new file will be added to follow the evolution.

Content

The information in this dataset has been extracted from two sources: 1. the European Commission webpage linked above 2. the press releases attached at the bottom of that webpage.

Caveat: within the assessed percent of the resources allocated to either climate or digital transformation, there is one case (Austria) where the endorsement press release contains a total that exceeds 100% (i.e. climate = 59%, digital transformation = 53%), as probably some initiatives cover both.

Therefore, in similar cases, the progress report reference figures that will be released after the final approval will be used, to avoid progress report to exceed 100%.

Transport represents a crucial sector of the economy. This publication provides an overview of the most recent and most pertinent annual transport-related statistics in Europe. It covers the European Union and its 27 Member States (EU-27) and, as far as possible, the current EU candidate countries, the EFTA countries and UK. As in the reference period (1990-2018), UK was part of the European Union, aggregates for EU-28 are presented whenever possible.
The content of this pocketbook is based on a range of sources including Eurostat, international organisations and associations national statistics and, where no data were available, own estimates. Own estimates have mainly been produced to get an idea of the EU total. At the level of individual countries, they are merely indicative and should by no means be (mis-)interpreted as "official" data.
The publication consists of three parts:
(1) a general part with general economic and other relevant data,
(2) a transport part covering both passenger and freight transport as well as other transport-related data, and, finally,
(3) an energy and environmental part with data on the impact which the transport sector has on energy use and the environment.

Most of the tables have data up to 2018; where available, more recent data have been provided.
The tables of this pocketbook may also be found on the Europa site at
http://ec.europa.eu/transport/facts-fundings/statistics/index_en.htm
Many tables on the internet contain more data than could be presented in this pocketbook. The sources referencing is more detailed in the excel tables presented on the internet. Some tables may be updated on the web before the publication of the next paper version.
Eurostat, the main data provider, may be accessed directly on the internet at http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/

The Eurobarometer series is a unique cross-national and cross-temporal survey program conducted on behalf of the European Commission. These surveys regularly monitor public opinion in the European Union (EU) member countries and consist of standard modules and special topic modules. The standard modules address attitudes towards European unification, institutions and policies, measurements for general socio-political orientations, as well as respondent and household demographics. The special topic modules address such topics as agriculture, education, natural environment and resources, public health, public safety and crime, and science and technology. This round of Eurobarometer surveys covers the following special topics: (1) Europe 2020 strategy, (2) the financial and economic crisis, (3) European citizenship, and (4) information on EU political matters. Opinions were collected on the European economic crisis and the importance of the Europe 2020 strategies for improving the crisis. Respondents were also asked about their thoughts on the effects of the formation of the European Union and the rights of its citizens. Additional information includes respondents' sources of political knowledge and to what extent they feel well informed on political matters. Demographic and other background information collected include age, gender, nationality, marital status and parental relations, occupation, age when stopped full-time education, household composition, ownership of durable goods, difficulties in paying bills, level in society, and Internet use. In addition, country-specific data includes type and size of locality, region of residence, and language of interview (select countries).

This round of Eurobarometer surveys queried respondents on standard Eurobarometer measures, such as how satisfied they were with their present life, whether they attempted to persuade others close to them to share their views on subjects they held strong opinions about, whether they discussed political matters, what their expectations were for the next 12 months, and how they viewed economic and social issues in their country compared to the European Union (EU). Additional questions focused on the respondents' knowledge of and opinions on the EU, including how well-informed they felt about the it, what sources of information about the EU they used, whether their country had benefited from being an EU member (or would benefit from being a future member), and the extent of their personal interest in EU matters. Another major focus of the surveys was personal data privacy. The survey asked respondents about their knowledge of the rules and requirements in protecting personal data, the ability of the law to protect citizens from entities accessing their information, and whether law enforcement should be able to access personal information for the purpose of fighting crime and terrorism. For the second major focus of the survey, the national economy, respondents were asked to evaluate their personal financial situation and their nation's economy, as well as to estimate the official growth rate (Gross Domestic Product), inflation rate, and unemployment rate, and then to compare these rates to those from previous or future years. Respondents also provided their opinion about the use of statistical information, especially for political decision-making. As a final major focus, respondents were asked about their interest in scientific research including how the media presents information about scientific research and what types of media they access to get information about this topic. Additional questions were asked of respondents in regard to globalization and involvement of the EU in this process, the 50th anniversary of EU achievements, the development of environmental, foreign, and immigration policies, and the European Council presidency. Demographic and other background information includes respondent's age, gender, nationality, origin of birth (personal and parental), marital status, left-to-right political self-placement, occupation, age when stopped full-time education, household composition, ownership of a fixed or a mobile telephone and other durable goods, type and size of locality, region of residence, and language of interview (select countries).
