Professor Reeves stated he was concentrating on the financial risk but I turn to the complex area of public private partnerships, PPPs, because he is accustomed to examining them. When one speaks to Department officials and others, they say we do not understand that the developer in this case is taking on significant revenue risk. I do not know whether our guests have assessed that. It is difficult because we are all working with blacked-out sections of documents. Have they examined it in any way to assess where the risk resides?
