Although it is unlikely that governance, probity and compliance policies, frameworks and procedures will prevent all occurrences of negligence, fraud and / or corruption, they may act as a deterrent and be used to inform public partner employees about their own accountabilities and responsibilities. Policies, frameworks and procedures could be reviewed and updated annually, with changes clearly communicated to staff. All public partner employees (and contractors / consultants) connected to the PPP could sign (as per 12 month cycle) a declaration of conflict of interest as well as disclosing any acceptance of a gift, benefit and / or hospitality received from consortia representatives (or other acceptances of offers made by parties outside of government). The private partner should attest to the public partner that their own employees have made similar declarations.
