  1. The PPP Good Governance Challenge • Tony Bonnici • Economic Affairs Officer • Chisinau, Moldova • 10 October 2012

  2. Overview • Success story: Manila Water Concession • 7 Principles of Good Governance on PPPs • National Kidney and Transplant Institute: Haemodialysis Center Project (Philippines)

  3. Examples of success: Manila Water Concession Background: • One of the oldest and the least efficient water systems among major Asian cities • MWSS was heavily indebted, overstaffed and inefficient • Three-quarters of the homes in the eastern half of Manila lacked 24-hour service and only 8% had sewerage connection • Two-thirds of the water produced was being lost to leaks, poor metering, and illegal connections

  4. Outcome… In August 1997, the Manila Water Company took over the operation of the government-owned Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System under a 25-year concession agreement. • In 1997, water was available to 3.1 million people or only 26% of the population in the East Zone. Today, water is provided 24/7 to 99% of the population in its service area, mostly in low income communities • 36 sewage treatment plants with a combined capacity of 135 million liters of wastewater per day • 200 kilometers of sewer pipelines have been laid

  5. Video case study: Manila Water Company PPP

  6. PPP success factors: Principles of Good Governance in PPPs • A coherent PPP policy • Strong enabling institutions • Legal framework “fewer, better, simpler” • Cooperative risk sharing and mutual support • Transparency in partner section • Putting people first • Achieving sustainable development

  7. Misconceptions… No! You need a policy framework with direction, responsibilities and goals. PRINCIPLE 1. POLICY PPP pilots will start the process…

  8. Principle 1. PPP Policy • A PPP Policy is needed to fix a “roadmap” • Strong social objectives, e.g. increasing accessibility for disadvantaged • Core values and principles (fairness, continuation of services, improved quality) • Consultation within Government • Consult investor community • Identify the right projects to get started

  9. Misconceptions… No! You need to build the skills within the government and set up the right institutions. PRINCIPLE 2. CAPACITY BUILDING PPPs focus on ring fencing the project…

  10. Principle 2. Capacity-Buidling INTERNALLY • Train personnel for the required skills for PPPs • Establish PPP Unit • Offer National PPP training programmes, guidelines EXTERNALLY • At same time use qualified independent advisors to help on projects

  11. Misconceptions… No! Overall framework should be simpler, fewer and better. PRINCIPLE 3. LEGAL PPPs … prescriptive rules and tight control…

  12. Principle 3. Legal: Fewer, better and simpler • Fewer laws - removal of constraints • Better laws - knowable, secure and predictable • Simpler laws - bundling projects, ‘competitive dialogue’

  13. Misconceptions… No! Governments must assume some risk and offer some subsidy. PRINCIPLE 4. RISK SHARING PPPs provide assets to governments at no risk and no cost

  14. Principle 4. Risk • Cooperative sharing and mutual support • Risk sharing key to PPP success • No science to allocating risks • Yes to some government subsidy but with care

  15. Misconceptions… No! Competition allows for the best partner and the best project. PRINCIPLE 5. PROCUREMENT PPPs …no tender required…

  16. Principle 5. Procurement • Open and transparent • Opportunities should be made public • Non-discrimination • Zero tolerance to corruption • Choosing the right partners

  17. Misconceptions… No! People have to be put first. PRINCIPLE 6. PUTTING PEOPLE FIRST Keep people out: they do not understand the technical matters…

  18. Principle 6. Putting People First • Define the public interest • Consult with people • Inform: disclose information in contracts • Oversee by objective third party • Involve independent auditors

  19. Misconceptions… No! Project can make profit and achieve social and environmental goals. PRINCIPLE 7. ENVIRONMENT …you have to choose between profit and social and environment development…

  20. Principle 7. Environment • The ‘Green case’ works for PPPs • Provide incentives to the private sector to adopt green criteria • Avoid politically correct ‘add ons’ that mean nothing
