As shown in the earlier list of contents, this report consists of eleven chapters and two appendices. As explained in chapter 1, the report is about the PFI in the hospital sector of the National Health Service and in particular about the PFI at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.
The report attempts to approach and assess the PFI from three directions. First by looking at a financial model of a general hospital used by Arthur Andersen, the consultants in a paper for the Treasury. Second by looking at value for money studies carried out by the National Audit Office. Third by doing a before-and-after study of the PFI hospital in Norwich.
