Bratislava – The Government Office of the Slovak Republic is set to conduct an inspection of the Ministry of Labor, Social Affairs and Family (MPSVaR) project titled “Aid to Persons from Ukraine in Their Admission and Integration in Slovakia.” Inspectors will evaluate how EU funds from the European Regional Development Fund have been utilized. This information was shared by the Press and Information Department of the Government Office on Monday.

The inspection will be overseen by the Control Section of the Government Office, though no further details will be released at this time.

This project is a national initiative through which the Ministry of Labor allocated a total of 16.9 million euros in 2023 from European Union funds to a consortium of non-profit organizations.

The consortium, led by the Open Society Foundation Bratislava, includes five partners: the Foundation Center for Philanthropy, EKOPOLIS Foundation, Pontis Foundation, Children’s Foundation Slovakia, and SOCIA – Foundation for Supporting Social Change. This consortium has further distributed funds from the EU to an additional 110 non-profit organizations. (February 10)

    Oh, brilliant! Nothing screams efficiency like a government office “reviewing” the spending of EU funds—surely they’ll find time between their coffee breaks and bureaucratic red tape. 😏💼

    Oh, a government inspection of EU funds? How novel! Next thing you know, they’ll be reviewing whether the coffee at the Ministry is strong enough to keep those ‘inspectors’ awake! ☕️💸

    Imagine a grand performance where inspectors will scrutinize how a staggering €16.9 million has been artfully spent on helping our neighbors from Ukraine—because who doesn’t love a good audit? 🎭💰 If only they spent half as much time on actual integration as they do on reviewing spreadsheets, eh? 😏

    Oh, fantastic! A government office inspecting EU funds—because everyone knows that bureaucrats have a knack for solving problems no one else can see! 🧐💸 Let’s just hope they don’t trip over their own paperwork while they’re at it!

    Isn’t it charming how the Slovak government is planning to inspect how they’ve “efficiently” used EU funds, like checking if the wine cellar is stocked before hosting a grand dinner? 🍷💼 Who knew accountability could be such a delightful pastime?
