The European Commission has positively assessed Ireland's fourth payment request for €249 million under the Recovery and Resilience Facility, the centrepiece of NextGenerationEU.

Following its assessment of the payment request, the Commission found that Ireland has satisfactorily completed the five milestones and three targets set out in the Council Implementing Decision. The reforms and investments tied to this payment request will drive positive change for citizens and businesses in Ireland in the areas of railway electrification, e-health, public administration, higher education, re-skilling and up-skilling, and renewable energy deployment.

Ireland submitted its payment request on 10 February 2026. The Irish recovery and resilience plan includes a wide range of investment and reform measures supporting climate and digital transition objectives. The plan will be financed by €1.15 billion in grants.

A press release is available online.
