The Court of Audit (Rekenhof) has criticized Flanders' approach to infrastructure investments, citing insufficient transparency and lack of justification for political adjustments to funding allocations. The report highlights concerns about the 'Integrated Investment Program' (GIP), which was designed to ensure objective distribution of funds for projects like bridges, tunnels, and bike paths.

Bias read (Center): The article presents the findings of an official audit without overtly favoring any political side. It reports on systemic issues with infrastructure funding and management but does not use loaded language or selectively present sources.
Why these scores (Factual 85 · Objective 70): The article accurately summarizes the audit report's findings regarding transparency and issues with the investment program. However, it leans slightly toward criticism of the government by emphasizing the audit's concerns and quoting opposition to the minister's claims.
