Orban added that the bills are ready to be sent to the Commission, as soon as the decision is taken to resume requesting reimbursements.
“We have been promised that, as long as we meet the requirements by October 31, payments may be resumed in early December and the bills would be processed quickly, so as to improve our absorption rate by the end of the year,” he said.
In July, the Government decided to stop sending the bills to the Commission, after investigations revealed a number of problems with public procurement auctions.
