A group comprised of Department and Agency representatives with experience of PPPs was established in 2017. The goal of the Inter-Departmental / Agency Group on PPPs was to review their experience and to report to the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform with recommendations on the future role of PPPs:
This review examines the future role of PPPs against the backdrop of the Government’s plans for a substantial increase in Exchequer-funded public capital investment in order to assess whether:
• PPPs should be utilised to deliver a substantial additional amount of public capital investment over that envisaged under the new 10-year National Development Plan; or
• PPPs should be retained as a procurement option to assist in delivery of the National Development Plan, to be adopted in circumstances that PPPs demonstrably yield value-for-money (VFM).
