In October 2004, the Strategic Investment Board published the Standardisation of PFI Contracts for Northern Ireland (SOPCNI) which was based on the third version of Standardisation of PFI Contracts (SOPC3) issued by HM Treasury in April 2004. This was followed by the publication of revised SOPCNI guidance in May 2006 which was based on the further guidance issued by HM Treasury in December 2005. SOPCNI is only different to SOPC3 where the law in Northern Ireland differs to that of Great Britain. Broadly speaking, the differences amount to legislation enacted in Northern Ireland and issues regarding equality and employment law, property and planning law and the unique arrangements in relation to criminal damage and terrorism insurance. A local version of the NHS standard contract employed in Great Britain has been issued by the Department of Health and Social Services and Public Safety on which consultation concluded on 26 June 2006. It is anticipated that a further draft of this contract will be published and used for the roll out of a number of projects in the health sector in Northern Ireland.
