Ppps Presentation Public & Private Partnerships in Greece SPECIAL SECRETARIAT FOR PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS Greek PPP Practice Early stage concession projects PPPs in Greece since 1993 First generation PPP projects Three pioneering projects paved the way for a wider use of PPPs in delivering public infrastructure: . Rion Antirion Bridge . Athens Ring Road/ Attiki Odos . Athens International Airport Today all these three concession projects are in successful operation. EIB supported all three projects, underlining its catalytic role in helping to co- finance major infrastructure projects together with the Hellenic public and private sector (PPPs). Second generation PPP projects . Ionian Motorway . Central Greece motorway (E65) . Maliakos – Kleidi . Elefsina – Korinthos - Patra . Korinthos – Tripoli – Kalamata . Cosco Pacific concession of Piers 2 and 3 at the Port of Piraeus for 35 years 2 Greek PPP Practice Framework First and Second generation concession projects had the main characteristics: • All were ratified in Parliament as distinct laws • Motorways and airport projects were co-financed by EU funds Need for a legal framework that… • Enables the wider implementation of PPPs • Overcomes obstacles that delayed the implementation of projects • Bridges the legal gap that led each co-financed project to the Parliament for ratification Establishment of a PPP Law (L. 3389) - 2005 • Result of extensive consultation • “Umbrella” framework • Incentives to private sector • Clear approval and tendering procedures for PPP projects 3 Greek PPP Practice Framework-Law 3389/2005 Keys to Successful PPPs Key Characteristics Clear Legal Framework • Clear approval process – centralized control by the Interministerial Strong Political Will Committee for PPPs (ICPPP). Affordability Funding • Award procedures clearly drafted in line with European Directives. • Specified contractual framework - minimum content of a PPP contract. • Fast track provisions for the grants of authorizations and permits. • Provisions include implementation of projects featuring both availability payments and users fees. • Private sector responsible for DBFO. Financing could be covered partially by the State. • Provisions for dispute resolution by arbitration. • Continuous follow-up by the Special Secretariat for PPPs which facilitates and administers projects. • A series of decisions by the Supreme Court in favor of the State, after appeals from bidders, highlights the legal certainty offered by the Hellenic framework. 4 Greek PPP Practice Affordability for availability-based projects Keys to Successful PPPs Clear Legal Framework Strong Political Will As the public sector pays for PPPs over the operational period of availability- Affordability based projects, we need to have a clear view on affordability. Funding Payments by the State Construction phase Private Investment -Loan repayment Operational phase -Operational, maintenance etc costs -Dividends • All projects receive a Inter-Ministerial Approval with specific budget, based on the NPV of future payments by the state. • Future payments are part of the Public Investment Program. • We have introduced a principle: future payments do not exceed 10% of total annual Public Investment Program. 5 Greek PPP Practice Project funding Keys to Successful PPPs • In practice, the financial institutions fund 70%-80% of project funding needs, Clear Legal Framework the rest 30%-20% is covered by private capitals. Strong Political Will • Financial crisis has caused a deterioration of funding terms and spreads for infrastructure projects. Affordability • Blending EU Grants and private funds, together with private sector Funding expertise, can contribute towards the optimization of resources: Payments by the State Construction phase Private Investment EU grants Operational phase -Loan repayment -Operational, maintenance etc costs -Dividends Benefit from use of EU grants “Better projects – More value for society” 6 PPP Contracts 14 PPP Contract of total cost € 822 mil.

    Mass Gatherings and Public Health The Experience of the Athens 2004 Olympic Games Edited by: Agis D. Tsouros and Panos A. Efstathiou Ministry of Health and Social Solidarity Mass Gatherings and Public Health Mass Gatherings and Public Health The Experience of the Athens 2004 Olympic Games Edited by: Agis D. Tsouros and Panos A. Efstathiou ABSTRACT Large-scale mass gatherings, such as the Olympic Games, represent significant challenges for the entire health sector of host countries. Emerging global public health threats of natural or deliberate nature increase considerably the health and safety vulnerability of mass gatherings. Major areas of public health responsibility include health care capacity and mass-casualty preparedness; disease surveillance and outbreak response; environmental health and food safety; public information and health promotion; public health preparedness and response to incidents potentially involving the deliberate use of explosives, biological and chemical agents or radionuclear material; and leadership, operations and unified command. This book comprehensively and systematically presents the experience of and lessons learned from the public health aspects of the preparations and conduct of the Athens 2004 Olympic Games. Documenting this experience can be a source of valuable information and knowledge for governments at all levels and communities in building their capacity for not only large-scale events but also preparing to deal with the avian influenza pandemic threat or other emergencies such as flooding and phenomena often associated with climate change.
