3.17 A key Government concern in the ownership of PFI or PPP companies is with the management behaviour brought about by that ownership. It is interested in fostering a partnership ethos that underpins good value for money and high-quality service provision over the long-term. The value of a partnership ethos was demonstrated in the 2008 NAO report Making Changes in Operational PFI Projects2. The Government looks for stability in management, good corporate governance, sustained quality of service provision and competition in the market to drive value for money.
