    Case Description

    Complaint

    On 2 August 2017, the EIB Complaints Mechanism (EIB-CM) received a complaint alleging negative impacts of the project “Trans Adriatic Pipeline" in Italy.

    The project concerns the financing and construction of the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP), which is the western part of the Southern Gas Corridor that goes from the Greek/Turkish border to Italy through Albania.

    EIB-CM Action

    Following a preliminary review of the case, the EIB-CM has taken note that the EIB operational team has not finalised the due diligence of the project and that the EIB Management Committee has not taken yet a decision to finance it. In this context, the complaint has been transferred to the Bank’s operational services for their consideration and reply.

    Conclusions

    The EIB operational services responded to the complainant to advise him/her that the EIB has not yet made a decision to finance the project. As part of its ongoing due diligence process, the EIB will review and assess the issues raised in the complaint and assess that due process has been followed by the promoter. Furthermore, the complainant was informed that the project promoter had ultimate responsibility for the project implementation. As such, the complainant should contact the project promoter to obtain clarification on the issues raised in the complaint and also submit his/her concerns to the project grievance mechanism which contact details can be found in the “Project Information” section below.
