In October 2021, Members of the European Parliament adopted in plenary the AFET/DEVE/BUDG joint implementation report that seeks to make a political evaluation of the EU Trust Funds (EUTFs) established since 2014 and extended until December 2021, as well as the Facility for Refugees in Turkey (FRT).
Parliament has acknowledged the value-added of these extra-budgetary (EUTFs) and extraordinary (FRT) tools but has also voiced criticism for a lack of democratic accountability in their operations/disbursement. The report assesses the EUTFs/FRT implementation and make proposals for the way forward under the new Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF - EU's long term budget).

The rapporteurs for the file are György Hölvényi (EPP, HU), Janusz Lewandowski (EPP, PL) and Milan Zver (EPP, SI).
