2 The Home Office will pay the PFI contractor an annual sum of £30.2 million less deductions for poor performance. This Accommodation Services Charge is paid in monthly instalments along with a Monthly Usage Payment for services which are dependent on the volumes used, e.g. laundry, catering. The total of these two payments is the Monthly Combined Payment, as shown in Figure 15.
Figure 16 overleaf shows the mechanism for making performance deductions and for reporting performance levels to the Home Office.
