EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 

The modifications submitted by Latvia under Article 21(1) of Regulation (EU) 2021/241 affect 22 
measures in total. Latvia requested to modify these 22 measures due to objective circumstances. 

In addition, the proposed amendments to the Latvian recovery and resilience plan aim to adapt the 
plan in line with the Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament and the 
Council “NextGenerationEU – the Road to 2026”1.  

Based on the assessment of the submitted modifications, the Latvian modified plan receives an A-
rating on all criteria except for costing, where the plan receives a B-rating (unchanged from the 
original plan assessment).

As the amount of the estimated total costs of the amended RRP is equal to the updated maximum 
financial contribution available for Latvia, all spending related to the measures mentioned in this 
table as contributing to climate objectives are fully financed by the funds from the Recovery and 
Resilience Facility. 

*Reforms and investments in the REPowerEU chapter are not taken into account when calculating 
the plan’s contribution to the digital target requirement set by Regulation (EU) 2021/241.
