Public Private Partnerships - Liquidation of the Carillion Group: National Development Finance Agency and the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform

Mr. Paddy Howard:
To be really clear about this, as it goes to the heart of the matter, the benefit of a PPP from the point of view of the public authority is the fact that one has moved risks to the private contractor and one is paying to move those risks. That is a benefit that applies in some but not all cases. There will be other cases in which a traditional approach is preferred.
