	<description><![CDATA[This session will revisit the rationale
for public-private partnerships (PPPs)
to focus on the opportunities for and
value of risk transfer and project
delivery efficiency. There are a
number of reasons governments are
attracted to PPPs. They include the
potential for value for money, early
project delivery, gains from innovation,
and access to improved services.
The relevant government agency is
responsible for assessing whether
a project offers value for money
compared with the most efficient
form of public delivery. The transfer
of risk is a driver of value for money.
Whatever the nature of the risk, the
principle is that the risk should be
allocated to the public or private sector
entity that is able to manage it at the
least cost.]]></description>
