This National PPP Policy (Policy) provides a consistent framework that enables public and private sectors to work together to improve public service delivery through private sector provision of public infrastructure and related services.

The objectives of the National PPP Policy Framework are to:

• encourage private sector investment in public infrastructure and related services where value for money for government can be clearly demonstrated;

• encourage innovation in the provision of infrastructure and related service delivery;

Refranchising Melbourne’s metropolitan train and tram networks

The train and tram network has now been operated by the private sector for more than seven years. The Franchise Agreements with Connex (operating Melbourne’s train system under contract to the Government)  and with Yarra Trams (for the tram system) expire in November 2008. 

The Government therefore needs to decide whether and in what form to retain private sector involvement in the operation of train and tram services. In particular, it must decide whether private sector involvement in service delivery provides a value for money outcome to the State.
