PPP for regional development - Michael BURNETT, EIPAOECD Governance
1) The document discusses the role of auditors in overseeing PPP (public-private partnership) projects for regional development.
2) It notes that PPP award processes often involve negotiation and different skill levels, and value for money depends on both award and execution phases, so auditors should assess contract management planning and the likely impact of award decisions.
3) The document poses questions for discussion about how auditors can best understand and manage risks in the negotiation phase of PPP awards, assess if value for money is being achieved in contract execution, and report their findings.
This document provides guidance on supporting decentralization and deconcentration processes. It outlines a reading grid using public financial management as a lens to understand key decentralization processes. The public financial management cycle includes strategic planning, budget preparation, budget execution, accounting and monitoring, reporting and audit, and policy review. This reading grid can help development partners navigate the complex topic of decentralization. Where conditions allow, sector budget support is proposed as an effective aid delivery modality that is aligned with national systems and promotes country ownership.

IFI outputs are widely viewed as credible and their leaders have become authorities, bringing improvements to fiscal transparency. However, political contexts are challenging and concerns exist over leadership changes and resources. Common themes include demands to expand narrow mandates without additional resources, and the need for more transparent forecast evaluations and systematic media monitoring. Reviews can drive changes and ensure IFI independence, information, and resources to operate sustainably and support transparency.

This document presents a consultation draft of a proposed International Public Sector Governance Framework developed by CIPFA and IFAC. It aims to promote good governance in the public sector by establishing benchmark principles. The framework takes a whole-system approach and defines seven principles for good governance: strong commitment to integrity and ethical values; openness and stakeholder engagement; defining outcomes in terms of sustainable benefits; determining interventions to achieve outcomes; developing capacity; managing risks and performance; and transparency and reporting. The document provides commentary and examples for applying each principle. It seeks public comments on the framework.
This document discusses how human desires can be fulfilled through supportive social systems and how governments can support these systems. The core human desires are to experience love through family, gain material goods through the economy, achieve social status through civil society, gain knowledge through education, and worship through religion. Fulfilling these desires leads to happiness. However, certain crimes like adultery, theft, corruption can undermine these systems and lead to unhappiness. The document recommends governments establish policies to protect families, private property, civil liberties, independent education and religious freedom to support long-term happiness.
Comparison of it governance framework-COBIT, ITIL, BS7799Meghna Verma
COBIT, ITIL, and ISO/IEC 27001 are frameworks for IT governance, service management, and information security respectively. COBIT provides IT processes, goals, and metrics for governance and was created by ISACA. ITIL provides best practices for managing IT services and was created by the UK government. ISO/IEC 27001 specifies requirements for an information security management system and was created by the International Organization for Standardization. While each framework addresses different aspects, they are complementary and organizations often use a combination to ensure IT supports business needs, services are effectively managed, and information security is maintained.
IT governance provides strategic direction for IT and ensures objectives are met, risks managed, and resources used responsibly. It establishes organizational regulations and standards exercised by management. IT governance is needed for complex IT projects as it involves a team to deal with political, organizational, legal, technical, cultural, and personnel issues to help ensure successful project outcomes.
The document outlines 4 principles of good governance followed by the Singapore government:
1) Leadership is key - leaders must be honest, capable, and have moral courage to do what is right rather than popular. Corruption is not tolerated.
2) Anticipate change and stay relevant - decisions must be forward-looking to anticipate future challenges through policies like developing the self-sufficient NEWater system.
3) Reward for work, work for reward - a meritocratic system rewards people based on abilities and hard work regardless of background through programs like scholarships.
4) A stake for everyone, opportunities for all - public participation and dialogue on decisions helps develop a greater sense of belonging and ownership, such

High-quality public infrastructure supports growth, improves well-being and generates jobs. Yet, infrastructure investment
is complex, and getting from conception to construction and operation is a long road fraught with obstacles and pitfalls.
Poor governance is a major reason why infrastructure projects often fail to meet their time-frame, budget, and service delivery
objectives. This booklet outlines how governments can get infrastructure right. For further information see www.oecd.org/gov

This document from the Department of Homeland Security discusses aging and failing critical infrastructure in the United States. It finds that while infrastructure age is a factor in failures, more important causes include insufficient funding for both initial construction and long-term maintenance. The funding gap is projected to grow significantly by 2040 without changes. The report recommends addressing this gap by updating laws and regulations, adopting innovative financing mechanisms, incentivizing risk mitigation and long-term planning, and investing funding more efficiently through improved collaboration and analysis.
Classes of Factors to be Considered in Infrastructure Investment PrioritizationBob Prieto
The prioritization of infrastructure investment must be focused on achieving the strategic objectives of the implementing agency or governmental unit while recognizing the broad role that infrastructure plays in serving society and supporting adjacent regional and national networks. Clear, robust objectives must be established; continuously articulated; alignment with affected stakeholders achieved; performance metrics established and continuously monitored and measured; and, corrective actions and portfolio adjustments made based on performance and changed futures. Many of these performance metrics will be associated with the factors to be considered in initial prioritization.
Specifically, the following categorization is suggested as a way to classify and consider the factors used in prioritization of infrastructure investments:
Doing the right things
Doing enough of the right things

The document discusses infrastructure finance in Iraq and the potential role of public-private partnerships (PPPs). It recommends that Iraq take a gradual approach to involving the private sector by first meeting basic needs through traditional budget and contract approaches. Successful pilot PPP projects could then be established by selecting low-risk projects, providing guarantees to mitigate risks, and building centralized institutional capacity. Over time, the use of PPPs and private sector involvement could be further institutionalized by carefully monitoring value for money and developing additional legal and regulatory frameworks as outlined in the OECD Principles on private sector participation in infrastructure.

This document discusses the importance of fiscal sustainability, affordability, and value for money in infrastructure projects. It states that dedicated processes, capable organizations, and relevant skills are needed to ensure fiscal sustainability, affordability, and value for money. Rigorous project appraisal and selection processes that consider economic, social, fiscal, environmental and climate costs and benefits across the full asset cycle can help achieve this. Supplementing cost-benefit analysis with other tools that accommodate multiple objectives, like infrastructure sustainability, can help establish overall societal returns on investments.

Presentation of OECD Government at a Glance 2023OECD Governance
Paris, 30 June, 2023
Presentation by Elsa Pilichowski, Director for Public Governance, OECD.
The 2023 edition of Government at a Glance provides a comprehensive overview of public governance and public administration practices in OECD Member and partner countries. It includes indicators on trust in public institutions and satisfaction with public services, as well as evidence on good governance practices in areas such as the policy cycle, budgeting, procurement, infrastructure planning and delivery, regulatory governance, digital government and open government data. Finally, it provides information on what resources public institutions use and how they are managed, including public finances, public employment, and human resources management. Government at a Glance allows for cross-country comparisons and helps identify trends, best practices, and areas for improvement in the public sector.

This document summarizes developments in sovereign green bond markets. It discusses approaches to incorporating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into public debt management. Sovereign green bond issuance has grown significantly in both advanced and emerging economies since 2016. Green bonds make up the largest share of the labeled bond market. Major benefits of sovereign green bonds include their positive impact on creditworthiness and alignment with ESG policies. However, issuers also face challenges such as additional costs and complexity of the issuance process. Common leading practices emphasize transparency, collaboration, and commitment to reporting.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

Towards an effective governance framework for infrastructure - Ronnie Downes, OECD
1. TOWARDS AN EFFECTIVE
GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK
FOR INFRASTRUCTURE
Ronnie Downes
Deputy Head of Division
Budgeting and Public Expenditures Division
Public Governance and Territorial Development
Directorate, OECD
11th Annual Meeting of Central, Eastern, and South-Easter
European Senior Budget Officials
21-22 May, Warsaw, Poland
2. 1. Background and definitions
2. Challenges of infrastructure investment
3. Towards a governance framework for
infrastructure
4. Nine Governance preconditions
5. The decision tree
6. Next steps

Agenda
3. • 2014 OECD meeting of Senior PPP and Infrastructure
Officials - need for more guidance on modality choice etc.
• Drawn from accumulated infrastructure work of the OECD
– PPPs – Budgeting and fiscal policy
– Multi-level governance – Regulatory policy
– public sector innovation – integrity and anti-corruption
• Substantial input from national officials, international
organisations and academia
• Latest developments:
– High Level Focus Group of decision makers and experts
– Framework endorsed at the 2015 OECD meeting of Senior PPP and
Infrastructure Officials
– Endorsed by the Public Governance Committee on April 10 2015
3
Background
4. • Quality of public governance correlates with public
investment and growth outcomes
• Substantial benefits can be realised by better
managing public investment throughout the life cycle
of the asset
• but, the governance of infrastructure entails its own
distinct set of challenges and requires a considered,
systematic approach.
• The ambition is to harness OECD country experience
into a coherent framework that countries can apply to
ensure that their infrastructure investment is effective,
efficient, transparent, user centric and affordable.
4
Good governance is a necessary
condition for good infrastructure
5. Governance of infrastructure: the processes, tools
and norms of interaction, decision-making and
monitoring used by governmental organisations and
their counterparts with respect to making infrastructure
services available
Public infrastructure: structures, networks, systems
or physical assets that provide public goods, or goods
that meet a politically mandated, fundamental need that
the market is not able to provide sufficiently.
Ranges from the direct provision of military installations
to privately-owned and -operated utilities under
government regulation, such as energy.

Some definitions
6. 6
Infrastructure governance relates to the
whole life cycle
1. Evaluation of
infrastructure
needs
2. Decision and
prioritisation of
infrastructure
3. Infrastructure
project
preparation
4.
Construction
5. Operation /
delivery /
maintenance
9. 1. Weak capacity for designing a strategic vision for
infrastructure undermines the development of a
sustainable development plan
2. Infrastructure impacts communities - without well
managed consultation good projects may falter.
3. The coordination challenge - a multiplicity of actors
across levels of government may derail good projects.
4. The skills challenge with respect to the life cycle of
infrastructure
5. Uncertainty with regards to revenue flows and sources
through the life cycle of the asset can result in a lack of
confidence in the project’s affordability
9
Governance challenges 1
10. 6. Infrastructure decisions tend to be bound by administrative
perimeters rather than relevant functional economic ones
7. The lack of data and evidence on service delivery performance
makes it difficult to use assessment tools well
8. Adverse incentives provided by regulatory frameworks may
generate suboptimal investment choices
9. Instability of the regulatory and institutional framework can also
prevent long-term decisions hereby undermining sound decision-
making from both public and private actors
10. Infrastructure procurement is vulnerable to corruption
11. Political and business cycles issues strongly impact the phases
of infrastructure
10
Governance challenges 2
12. is to ensure an infrastructure program that
• makes the right projects happen,
• in a cost-efficient and
• affordable manner, and that
• is trusted by users and takes citizen views
into account.
12
The objective of the framework
13. A. A list of governance preconditions -
these concern the overall enabling
governance environment for
infrastructure.
B. A decision tree, which guides countries
with respect to making sectoral decisions
and overall infrastructure decisions.
13
2 Elements of the Framework
14. 1. A long term strategic vision for the use of
infrastructure, which takes into account the multi-
dimensionality of the challenges.
2. Institutional and regulatory frameworks that encourage
the sustainable development, the management
and the renewal of infrastructure.
3. The process for managing infrastructure projects over
their life-cycle delivery should be user-centric. It
should rest on broad based consultations and have a
primary focus on the users’ needs.
4. Coordination across levels of government and
jurisdictions should be frank, regular and performance
oriented.
14
A. Governance preconditions
15. 5. The appropriate skills and procedures to ensure
rigorous project assurance, affordability, value
for money and transparency should be in place.
6. Project assessments should be based on data and a
balanced value for money procedure.
7. Systems should be in place to ensure a focus on the
performance of the asset throughout its life.
8. Transparency and integrity should be secured
via appropriate capacities and values.
9. The choice of the appropriate delivery modality
should integrate political, sectoral, and strategic
aspects.
15
A. Governance preconditions – cont’d
17. B. The infrastructure Decision Tree
• Designed to identify ways to optimise
infrastructure investment decisions
– Insufficient attention given to choice of delivery mode – often
driven by expediency and habit
– Decisions relating to mode of delivery should be based on set
criteria and consider the full range of available options
• Three levels in the decision tree:
1. Set a preferred sectoral approach by assessing reform
objectives and the characteristics of the sector
2. Assess how the country circumstances (political economy,
government’s capacities, private sector’s capacities, enabling
legal environment, etc.) impact the sector
3. Choose a delivery model based on the project characteristics
and overall approach
17
18. 18
Set a preferred sectoral approach
What are the prioritized sectoral policy
objectives?
What characterizes the market and how
politically sensitive is the sector?
Improving quality of services Extent of Market Failures?
• Potential for competition
• Non-excludability
• Network effects
Improving access to infrastructure
Improving efficiency
Reducing the need for government
subsidies
Promoting innovation Political Sensitivity?
• Equity Considerations
• Environmental, land Issues
• National Security
Speed of delivery
Improving quality of services
⇓ Optimal sector approach
19. 19
Assess how the country circumstances
impact the sector
Dimension Components
Political economy • Distribution of the political resources within an
economy?
Government’s capacities • Public sector capacity for implementation, regulation,
and monitoring?
Private sector’s capacities • Skills and abilities, the degree to which the market is
competitive, whether there is a level playing field
between incumbents and new-comers, including those
from abroad?
The enabling legal environment • Clear and prudent legislation?
• Dispute resolution mechanisms?
• Legal enforcement?
20. • The size and financing profile of the investment - e.g. a large initial
investment followed by significant operating and maintenance needs could
indicate advantages to bundle the construction, operation and maintenance
of the assets in a single contract.
• The potential for cost recovery from users or land value capture -
e.g. for investments in sectors that have a non-excludable nature, user fees
will not be practicable and the project will need to be funded via
government spending
• The extent to which quality is contractible – e.g. when quality is
difficult to specify and monitor, then contracts are likely to be costly and
time consuming to develop, and will be highly vulnerable to renegotiation.
• The level of uncertainty – e.g. many of the most catastrophic
infrastructure investments are the result of poor assumptions, often made
worse by excessive optimism. In sectors where change is highly
unpredictable (e.g. where technology is in flux), preferred modes of delivery
should be adaptable, not locked.
• The ability to identify, assess and allocate risk appropriately – e.g.
are we sure which parties should carry what risks?
20
Choose a delivery model based on the
project characteristics
22. Summary
– The new OECD Framework aims to help
countries identify ways to optimise their
infrastructure decisions.
– It provides an opportunity to assess a country’s
infrastructure portfolio in an analytical and
timely manner.
– It integrates a sectoral, a country and a
project approach to infrastructure delivery,
and the governance of such delivery.
22
23. • Both financing conditions and an optimal
environment must be met for efficient
public investment
– 3-pronged plan: EFSI (fund focus), technical
assistance on structural reform (project
focus), and a more investment “friendly”
environment (regulation focus)
– Last point in particular aligns with
governance preconditions set forth by the
OECD framework
23
Complementarity with the Junker plan
24. • Circulated to other committees across the OECD
– Public Governance Committee (PGC) consulted by written
procedure by the 10th of April 2015
• To be presented at the upcoming OECD Ministerial
Council Meeting on June 3-4 2015 in Paris
• Comments and contributions by country officials
most welcome as to whether the issues and approach are
in line with their needs and state of play for
infrastructure
– Possible follow up activities? (ex: Chile has requested an
assessment on the basis of the framework)
• Aim is to develop indicators that countries can use to
assess their infrastructure governance preconditions
