European Commission
The Commission is developing an indicator-based assessment framework for public administration with the intention
of capturing public administrations’ strengths and weaknesses in policymaking, human resources management, service
delivery, accountability and public financial management. The framework is inspired by the Principles of Public Administration
developed by SIGMA, a joint initiative between the EU and the OECD.The public administration policy area covered in this fiche focuses on measures linked to four of these principles:

EU Member States commit to implement ambitious reforms and investments and receive funds from the RRF when they achieve these commitments.

Equality and the inclusion of disadvantaged groups are high on the EU's policy agenda. This thematic analysis
outlines the contribution of the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) to addressing inequalities in the EU. The fiche
provides an overview of the existing policy context in the EU and gives an overview of the measures that Member
States are taking in their national recovery and resilience plans (RRPs)1.
Women and men were impacted differently by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the crisis also significantly
affected specific groups such as refugees, people with disabilities, LGBTIQ people2, older people and
people with a migrant, minority racial or ethnic background, including marginalised Roma communities. In
addition, the pandemic and the measures to contain it hit disadvantaged groups harder. The crisis accentuated the
challenges that certain groups already faced. It further entrenched existing inequalities and discrimination, and
exacerbated social exclusion and marginalisation3. For those depending on help from others to take care of their
physical needs, physical distancing created major difficulties. Restrictive measures had an additional impact on mental
well-being, in particular of people who already relied to a high degree on their social circles.

Nikitas, Vasilis; Vasilopoulou, Vasiliki
This paper summarises the approach taken by the European Commission during the Economic Adjustment
Programmes (2010 to 2018) to address reforms to Greece’s public administration. It will argue that it was
necessary to address this structural reform area as part of the programmes as well as post-programme
surveillance. The paper will explain the challenges the public administration was faced with at the outset of
the programme, as a number of macroeconomic imbalances that the Greek economy had accumulated prior to
the financial crisis can demonstrably be linked to the weaknesses of the public administration. A reform of the
public administration was therefore urgently needed and formed a key element of all three programmes. The
benchmarking of structural policies revealed that Greece was underperforming relative to the EU average in
many policy domains. Therefore, Greece needed to review the overall functioning and capacity of its public
sector as well as addressing its public sector wage bill, which was well above the Eurozone average.

Directorate-General for Migration and Home Affairs; ICF Consulting Services Limited
The public consultation on the integration and social inclusion of migrants and people
with migrant background ran from 22nd July until 21st October 2020.
The objective of the public consultation was to collect the views on a number of key
aspects and identify priorities from a broad range of stakeholders. The consultation
was open to all interested stakeholders from the public and private sectors, including
national and local authorities, commercial and non-commercial organisations, experts,
academics as well as EU and non-EU citizens. The public consultation was
complementary to the targeted consultation meetings organised in parallel with
different stakeholders.
The results of the public consultation will feed into a new action plan on integration
and inclusion as announced in the 2020 European Commission’s Work Programme and
in the new Pact on asylum and integration.
The integration and social inclusion of migrants are crucial not only to ensure the
cohesion of our societies but also to address skills gaps, labour shortages, and to
boost economic performance overall. The EU's competences in the area of integration
are set out in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. While the EU has
no competence to harmonise laws and regulations in Member States related to
integration, the EU may provide various incentives and support for Member States to
advance the integration of third-country nationals legally residing on their territory.
The Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union also sets out the EU's
competence to support and complement Member States’ activities in combating social
exclusion and poverty.
The key documents setting out the scope for the EU action on integration of migrants
are the 2004 common basic principles for immigrant integration with its 11 principles,
including the respect for basic EU values, and the Commission's 2016 action plan on
the integration of third-country nationals.
