PFI Handback - The View From Both Sides

With the first generation of the UKs operational PFI/PPP projects expiring, and hundreds more set to follow suit over the next few years, vital lessons are being learned on best practice for the Handback process – and how to avoid the many pitfalls that can arise.

Addleshaw Goddard's series of 'Handback' events has gathered industry specialists around the UK and beyond to look at how best to handle the return of schools, health facilities and more to public ownership.

At a recent event in Scotland, we heard from parties on either side – public and private sector - of completed Handback projects to gather intelligence on what the process involved, what recurring issues arose ... and what to do about them.
