In addition, work is also progressing on a number of other PPP projects, including the Grangegorman DIT Project (including a student accommodation concession project as well as the availability based PPP project), a €300 million social housing PPP project, and three further projects with a combined value of c€500 million announced in 2015 under Phase 3 of the Government's PPP Programme, in the higher education, health and justice sectors - precise projects yet to be finally decided by the relevant Departments. (This list does not include a number of Water projects delivered by PPP but as on-balance sheet projects.)
My Department is currently updating projections for the future costs of PPPs, as part of the regular annual updating of PPP statistics. However, the latest projections available indicate that the cost of PPP Unitary Payments in 2017 is expected to be €224m, which cost is projected to continue to increase until 2021 when it is expected to peak at over €340m. Thereafter, the average cost for the next 14 years, to 2035, will exceed €300m per annum, before falling to an average of some €200m for the next 7 years to 2042. It will be 2053 before all unitary payments for existing PPPs have ceased.
My Department does not publish details of the projected annual cost of individual PPP projects over their lifetime, but aggregate information on the future cost of each individual PPP project is available on the Department's website www.ppp.gov.ie.
