At ECOFIN, ministers will look at a package of laws on taxes on tobacco products. They will also hear about the economic and financial impact of Russia's aggression against Ukraine.
They will exchange views on how the Recovery and Resilience Facility is working and review progress on simplifying EU legislation. They are expected to approve conclusions on EU statistics.
