The implementation of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) is entering a crucial phase with a view to achieving the Ninth instalment, as provided for in the European timetable. The monitoring updated in March 2026 shows an articulated picture: on the one hand, the Plan continues to advance the planned targets; on the other hand, there are elements of reprogramming and financial realignment that affect overall management and territorial dynamics, with particular emphasis on the Campania Region.
National progress of the NRRP and the financial framework
According to the monitoring dossier of the Parliamentary Studies Service, the Italian NRRP includes 7 Missions and 224 measures, for a total budget of 194.4 billion euro .
The document highlights that:
- the financial programming has been updated in the light of the amendments approved by the EU Council on 27 November 2025 and 30 March 2026;
- the Ninth instalment, linked to milestones and targets expiring on 31 December 2025, is subject to verification by the European Commission;
- some measures are being reprogrammed, including in relation to the innovations introduced by Budget Law 2026 and Legislative Decree No 19 of 19 February 2026.
Parliamentary monitoring also underlines that the financial management of the Plan is analyzed on a regional basis, with particular attention to the distribution of funds and the progress of projects in the different areas of the country.
Campania in the NRRP: progress and achievements
The Campania Region confirms a central role in the implementation of the NRRP, both in terms of the volume of investments and the variety of interventions activated.
Campania has made significant progress in the implementation of the NRRP, in particular in Mission 6 – Health, where the Region has completed the objectives set for the monitoring period. The deployment of new high-tech health equipment and the start-up of Community hospitals and homes are evidence of a concrete strengthening of territorial assistance and an improvement in diagnostic capacity. The acceleration of recent months has made it possible to consolidate the network of local services, making a significant contribution to achieving the national targets linked to the Ninth instalment.
In parallel, the Region has advanced in other strategic areas of the Plan. In the field of tourism, a regional observatory has been set up to analyse flows and support programming, with the aim of improving the quality of supply and the competitiveness of the area. On the social policy front, Campania has defined a specific programming for people with neurodevelopmental and autism spectrum disorders, financed with dedicated resources and built in collaboration with local autonomies. The process of strengthening the governance of the third sector also continued, with interventions aimed at the reorganization of strategic bodies for regional welfare.
Conclusion
The monitoring updated in March 2026 shows a NRRP at an advanced stage, with a significant acceleration in the regions most involved in implementing the measures. Campania stands out for the completion of key targets in the Health Mission, for the activation of innovative tools in tourism and for the social programming financed.
For Campania, a region among the first in Italy in terms of volume of resources allocated, the progress capacity recorded in the first quarter of 2026 represents a positive element in view of the European verification of the Ninth installment.
In view of the Ninth instalment, the regional contribution appears decisive for the achievement of the national objectives, in a context in which financial management and territorial implementation capacity remain decisive factors for the overall success of the Plan.
