Kenya’s Ministry of Transport in PPP's
Kenya’s Ministry of Transport observes a few lessons on its experience of PPPs as follows;
- Adequate capacity needs to be in place in Ministries for structuring of deals and negotiating deals to protect the public sector interest.
- Public and political acceptance of benefits of public private partnerships is needed.
- PPPs are not a panacea. They represent a claim on public resources that needs to be understood and assessed by the Government. They are often complex and long term and mistakes can be costly.
