One way to start the Grenelle Environment

Public-Private Partnerships: "The PPP is one way to start the Grenelle"

Wednesday and Thursday meetings are held the international public-private partnerships (PPP) at convention center Paris. The appointment of all public and private actors involved in designing, financing, implementation, management and maintenance of public facilities and services under the PPP contract is the second edition of the genre.

On this occasion, "The Monitor" Martinand met Claude, Vice-President of the General Council on Environment and Development sustainable, president of the Institute for Responsible Management (IGD). In the aftermath of the reform of PPP July 28, 2008, in a difficult financial environment, Claude Martinand an update on the future of these contracts. It is realistic but optimistic.


reform on July 28 it seems you able to revive the public-private partnership (PPP), especially in this time of crisis?

In 2002, RMI had taken an initiative for a new contract to complete the toolkit of PPP. This first initiative has resulted in the order of June 17, 2004. Our second initiative led to the adoption of the Law of 28 July 2008 which expands the use of partnership contract.
Concerning the crisis, it should be noted that these contracts are long term and are paid by the public and / or users. Does the attractiveness of these contracts has been degraded by the crisis? It is likely, but keep in mind that the solvency of communities is good, and that these contracts provide for claims and where necessary secure assets for lenders. And it is not clear that communities can benefit for themselves from borrowing conditions attractive in the current context. If you want to revive the economy, and to realize the Grenelle, the PPP is one of the best ways to mobilize.


Do you think that negotiated the new procedure will be used?

It is restricted to contracts where the total amount, the total duration is limited. This will restrict the use of the procedure, but will however SMEs to access them more easily. The difficulty for them is to manage such contracts over time. The acceptance of assignments of receivables to the banks is limited to 80% investment on the part of the rent, except in the case of a long lease (BEA) of less than 10 million euros, to which it can go up to 100%. If such a BEA has been also a screening, the contract is eligible for the compensation fund for VAT (FCTVA).


Improvements in the financial system and tax you seem sufficient?

The possibility for the partner to enhance the field of public person is useful, as for the stadium project in Lille. The law reaffirms the principle of fiscal neutrality between contracts, but this is toujours pas admis par un certain nombre d'administrations, ce qui est regrettable. Sur le plan fiscal, si je n’ai pas le sentiment que les choses aillent très loin concrètement; cela va néanmoins dans le bon sens. Les subventions peuvent désormais être affectées au projet, même s’il est porté par un partenaire privé. Quoi qu’il en soit, on a plus que jamais besoin d’infrastructures nouvelles: dans les transports, dans l’énergie et les réseaux, les équipements et les bâtiments.


Savez-vous si des personnes publiques envisagent d’ores et déjà d’utiliser le nouveau critère "bilan coût/avantages" ?

Yes. Moreover, this test reinforces the analysis that existed before. It is quite positive from the perspective of sustainable development. Take for example the energy efficiency of buildings: it is not known at present, given the budgetary logic, finance these investments by energy savings they will generate. On this point, the PPP is a powerful tool.


How PPPs can they be a support of sustainable development?

Since sustainable development is an integrated Long term, the PPP is a contract adapted. It helps to think in overall cost, including construction costs, but also the maintenance and operation of the amortization period. The overall mission avoids areas of liability, where there is legal risk. In this sense, a good preparation of the contract by the parties can really optimize the management of risks over the long term, and to adapt the equipment throughout its life to the necessities of sustainable development.


Where are you in launching the School of PPPs where the IGD taken the initiative?

In its letter of 1 October 2007 * President of the Republic had supported the development of PPPs, but said officials hoped the training of these new contracts. We have created a "School of PPP, which is a multifaceted device training. Pantheon-Assas, Paris-X, ENPC and MAPPP kindly lend their support to this project. We must thank them. We are currently preparing a training module with the Inet in Strasbourg. CNFPT and joined the process.

Ten ways to preserve the investment capacity of communities

How can local communities continue to meet the demands of society, while the state of their finances does little more leeway? They are at the foot of the wall. However, given its importance in public investment - About three quarters - and essential services it funds local public investment can "serve as an adjustment variable", says Institute of decentralization in a report * on "local public investment and control of public expenditure " presented October 8.

This vast area explored by the rapporteur of the study, Bernard Fritsch, a senior lecturer at the Institute of Geography, University of Nantes. "When local communities are facing a demand for public services, they argue automatically in terms of supply of new equipment without putting this solution against other possible options such as upgrading of existing equipment. "The university also criticized a system of financing the subsidies' pushing communities to build new facilities rather than the rationalization of existing facilities" . And adds: "We do not know the geography of spillover from public facilities." Thus, the economic balance sheet - after building a convention center, for example - or environmental reports are rare.

Proposals

known advocate of a "revision of the modes of local public action, the Institute decentralization ten proposals. To find new financial resources, we must seek more users through pricing, used more widely, but a "case by case," the PPP (public service delegations, partnership agreements, etc.), or change the tax regime affecting communities a greater share of taxation on cars and by initiating reforms in rental values.

A second set of proposals aimed at improving the efficiency of government interventions. Again, the study calls on local decision-makers to think differently, putting the focus of their reflection the concept of "services" rather than of "equipment". Other tracks: optimizing the management of existing assets, the more frequent use of the evaluation, or development of engineering capabilities of local communities.

The report finally addresses a modest institutional issues. To cope with the crumbling communal Institute of decentralization suggests a boost from "urban" the process of fusion-association of municipalities and strengthen the skills of intercommunal. Considers it necessary to clarify the relationship between local authorities, without taking a position on a possible solution. It must be said that the institute had addressed this issue at length in June 2006, in a report entitled "Rethinking local responsibilities." He called the questioning of the general clause of skills of the departments and regions (see our article: "The general competence clause in question ).

* The report is to be ordered Institute of decentralization the price of 15 euros.
