The Board of Directors approved an amendment to its Anti-Fraud Measures Plan with the aim of establishing a specific system that allows for continuous monitoring in the management of European projects. The Port Authority is a beneficiary of FEMP (European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund) and ERDF (European Regional Development Programme) funds, thus reinforcing its commitment to combating conflicts of interest, fraud, and corruption. The actions related to both funds are included in the entity's Investment Plan and, in the case of ERDF, include projects such as the automation and modernization of the rail network, electrical installations at the docks, and energy efficiency improvements and the installation of renewable energy systems in Port Authority buildings. In the case of FEMPA, the projects benefiting from funding include the renovation and improvement of the fish market's interior facilities (pillars, roof, climate control), improvements to sustainability and energy efficiency at the fishing docks, and upgrades to the sanitation network at the northern fishing dock and net drying area. The approved Anti-Fraud Measures Plan aims to reinforce the Port Authority's commitment to managing European funds and establish continuous monitoring of project implementation. Furthermore, the Board of Directors approved an institutional declaration on combating fraud, in accordance with European requirements for the principles of sound financial management, and the effective prevention and prosecution of fraud, corruption, and conflicts of interest.
