Hungary has recovered more than 2.5 billion Forints (over €7 million) from previously distributed grants issued by the National Cultural Fund (NKA). This represents 10-15% of allocated funds, according to the Minister, who indicated the potential for even greater returns. The grants were apparently revoked following scrutiny and re-evaluation. The Minister communicated this information during an interview with RTL, a Hungarian television channel. The amount recovered suggests significant issues with the initial grant allocation process. The government is actively pursuing the return of misused or improperly awarded funds from the NKA. Further efforts are underway to maximize the recovered amount.
