jq,
Are you following or do you intend to comment on the NSW Parliamentary Accounts Committee Inquiry into PPPs? I think it begins next week. I would be very interested in your views on the various submissions and on the issues at stake here. The inquiry follows a resolution adopted by the NSWALP Branch Conference in June, calling for such Inquiry. Little was it known that the Cross City Tunnel would prove such delicious background ‘sauce’, for the issues that I hope will be canvassed!
I hadn’t heard of this one, but I’m working on a related submission, so I’d better see if this one has closed.
