In June 2019, RDP Managing Authorities completed the evaluation of the RDP achievements and im-pacts and submitted their findings in the enhanced Annual Implementation Reports 2019 (AIRs). They reported on both RDP achievements by answering the Common Evaluation Questions (CEQs) 1-21 and the contributions of RDPs to the EU’s strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, as well as the biodiversity strategy (headline targets), and CAP objectives (impacts) by answering CEQs 22-30.

Working language will be in English.
