The Comhairle, as the client, is committed to procuring the schools through a Hybrid PPP Model, which is outlined above. The Comhairle will borrow money from the Public Works Loan Board to fund the capital costs of the new schools.
The Comhairle will set up the Special Purpose Vehicle and intends to own 100% of that SPV; the Contract between the Comhairle and the SPV will be based on SSSC3. The Comhairle will provide the SPV with the Brief and Output Specification for the schools.
The Comhairle will procure a Private Sector Development Partner (PSDP) to partner the SPV in identifying and implementing the best strategy for the design, build and operation of the project schools.
