A PPP policy would typically include: The following sections provide examples of how different countries define their PPP program objectives, scope, and implementing principles. Many governments issue a PPP policy statement or document to communicate their intention to use PPPs to civil servants, the public, and potential investors and the rationale behind this decision.
