Transport, Local Government and the Regions written question – answered at on 20 July 2001.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions how many PFI transactions have been overseen by his Department in each of the last 10 years; what is his estimate of the cost savings made in each of these transactions in comparison with the public sector alternative; what are the outstanding payments to be made in relation to these transactions for each of the next 15 years; and if he will make a statement.
Information about the PFI transactions that have been overseen by this Department since 1992 (10 years) is included in the table. However, any estimates of cost savings made in each of these transactions in comparison with the public sector alternative could be provided only at disproportionate cost to my department and, as agreed with the National Audit Office, payments to be made to contractors under PFI contracts are commercially confidential. Aggregate figures of estimated payments under all PFI contracts for the years 2001–01 to 2025–26 have been published in Table C18 of the Budget 2001 "Red Book"
