PPP AND THE DELIVERY OF PUBLIC SERVICES Prof. David Eaton PhD, MSc, BSc, MRICS, ILTM School of the Built Environment University of Salford STRUCTURE OF PRESENTATI0N: • • • • • • • • INTRODUCTION PHILOSOPHY METHODOLOGY FRAMEWORKS PAYMENT MECHANISMS PUBLIC SECTOR ISSUES UK AND WORLD VIEW OF PPP CONCLUSIONS WHAT IS PPP? PPP is a: • Government Policy; • Partnering arrangement between the Public and Private Sectors; • Service delivery - responsibility is transferred from the public to the private sector for a considerable period of time. PPP IS NOT / PPP SHOULD NOT BE!!: • An alternative financing mechanism for public spending (but, yes it is!) • A form of privatisation; • A ‘SUBSTITUTE’ source of funding public sector expenditure. HISTORY OF PFI Origins in ‘Turnkey’ style projects from history – canals, turnpikes, and railways; Modern Derivation from ‘BOOT’ projects – Build, Own, Operate, Transfer; PFI launched in the UK in 1992. CURRENT UK POSITION Overall approximately 12% of all public sector capital investment since 1996 has been by PFI; Year on year this is increasing; By 2007-08 - ~ 1000 projects with a capital value of £50B; The vast majority so far has been in transport infrastructure projects. KEY CONCEPTS IN PPP: • • • • Purchase services not assets; Value for money (VFM); Risk Management; Incorporate private sector know-how and expertise; • Whole Life Cycle Costing; • Alternative financing techniques required. STOP PRESS - • “Most construction under [PPP] is delivered on time and at the cost expected…Obtained a much higher degree of price certainty and timely delivery of good quality built assets, compared to previous conventional …projects.” Sir John Bourn, Head of NAO, reporting to UK Parliament on 5th February 2003. ISBN: 0102920141 KEY DRIVERS OF PPP: • • • • • Need for better facilities / infrastructure; Demand in public sector services; Search for efficiency and creativity; Financial need; Desire to introduce competition. KEY ENABLERS OF PPP • • • • • Political framework and will; Legal framework; Social acceptance; Quality practitioners; Experience. STOP PRESS: “We expect quality in our [projects]. We expect them to be well designed and fit for purpose – safe, practical and cost effective. …we need to do everything we can…to ensure that maximum whole-life value for money is achieved.” Rt. Hon. Paul Boateng MP Chief secretary to the Treasury. Feb.2003. PPP’S PHILOSOPHY is: • A government policy to tackle financial problems in service provision and to integrate private management skills to increase efficiency, effectiveness and quality & to exploit new opportunities.

PFI means that the public sector only pays for the services it uses – it no longer has to finance the capital, service and operational costs of an unused facility; Private sector performance is controlled because payments are made against pre-determined service specifications. PUBLIC SECTOR OBJECTIVES OF PFI: Improving Value for Money in Government expenditure – achieved through private sector innovation and management skills; It can deliver significant performance improvements and efficiency savings.

UK and EU financial controls and limits for Government debt means that PFI is a crucial element of the UK national government policy for infrastructure development. PFI Achievements: Delivered on time - 76% for PFI 30% for non-PFI Delivered to budget - 79% for PFI 27% for non-PFI VfM to taxpayer 81% for PFI projects Client experience - 76% of PFI projects had performed better than other previous experiences FUTURE POSITION IN UK Biggest future increases expected in Health and Defence sectors; Emerging areas: – Schools; – Social Housing; – Urban Regeneration; and – Waste Recycling. CURRENT POSITION IN EUROPE FRANCE - There is a long-established tradition of public-private cooperation using a concession structure. GERMANY – No formal central government unit or programme. A BOT Law exists. GREECE- Government has formally launched a PPP (PFI) programme in November 2000. There is a central PPP (PFI) Unit. IRELAND – A strong public commitment to a formal PPP (PFI) programme. ITALY - There is a special PPP/PFI Taskforce – Unità tecnica Finanza di Progetto (UFP). Merloni Law in 1998 set the framework for using private sector. NETHERLANDS – There is a strong framework for PPPs/PFI including a dedicated PPP/PFI Unit. PORTUGAL – An early exponent of PPP/PFI in Europe. There is no central PPP/PFI government unit. The government is promoting large and medium sized PPP/PFI projects. SPAIN – No established formal PPP/PFI Unit. Government has a road programme using the shadow toll structure. CURRENT POSITION IN REST OF WORLD AUSTRALIA – Regional Approach; BRASIL – Federal Programme $200B; CANADA – Regional Approach; CHINA - ! JAPAN – National Approach; MEXİCO – Regional Approach $ 20B; SOUTH AFRICA – National Approach; TURKEY – Regional Approach >£20B OBSERVATIONS PFI will remain for the foreseeable future; PFI will become more acceptable; Public Sector need training to respond to the emerging demands of PFI procurement. PUBLIC SECTOR NEEDS Guidance on Degree of Disclosure; Recognised International / Chartered PFI Practitioner Qualification; Create and manage a Standard Form of PFI Cost Report; Create and manage a Standard Form of WLCC Reports. Government encouragement and ‘seed-corn’ fund for ‘LOCAL’ SME PFI Projects; Government support / approval for the development of alternative concession mechanisms as alternative to fixed duration concessions; PUBLIC SECTOR NEEDS: IMPROVED EDUCATION & TRAINING in: Guaranteed Maximum Price; Risk Management; Value for Money; Whole Life Cycle Costs.
