OLAF to investigate EUR 1.8 million luxury mini nursery in Hungary

After the Hungarian Integrity Authority’s investigations, the EU’s anti-fraud office is also getting involved in finding out details about a Hungarian luxury mini nursery’s high expenditure of EU funds.

OLAF starts investigation

Telex pointed out that the EU’s anti-fraud office, OLAF, has joined the Hungarian Integrity Authority in investigating a controversial mini nursery project in Nógrád County, Hungary. Funded with HUF 677 million (approximately EUR 1.8 million), the nursery provides just 12 places, a cost that independent MEP Ákos Hadházy has pointed out equates to HUF 56 million (EUR 136,337) per place. Hadházy brought the matter to the attention of the EU’s anti-fraud office in February, raising concerns about the high expenditure of EU funds on this project. He shared OLAF’s response, confirming the investigation, on his Facebook page.
