One of the conclusions in the report with regard to the initial bundle of schools, as Mr. Murphy said, is that while he may have access to it, it is not publicly available - we cannot see it. A criticism made of PPPs across many jurisdictions is that any time a broader group of people seek to appraise how the taxpayer is benefiting from them, we, as public representatives, cannot get that information because we are told it would undermine the ability of the State to get good value in the future.
