    Value for Money Integration in the Renegotiation of Public Private Partnership Road Projects By Ajibola Oladipo Fatokun A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire October 2018 i STUDENT DECLARATION I declare that while registered as a candidate for the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another award of the University or other academic or professional institution I declare that no material contained in the thesis has been used in any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work Signature of Candidate: ____________________________________________________ Type of Award: ________________________ PhD _______________________ School: ______________________ Engineering ____________________ ii ABSTRACT The governments of various countries have continued to adopt Public Private Partnership (PPP) for infrastructure projects delivery due to its many advantages over the traditional procurement method. However, concerns have been raised by stakeholders about the viability of PPP to deliver Value for Money (VfM), especially for the client. These discussions have generated debates and arguments in policy and advisory documents within the last decade mainly in the renegotiation of PPP water and transport projects and their VfM implications. Poor or non-achievement of VfM in PPP contracts renegotiation has led to this study in PPP road projects with the overall aim of integrating VfM considerations into the renegotiation process of PPP road projects. Mixed methodology research approach is used to achieve the objectives set for the study. Interviews and questionnaires of professionals involved in Design-Build-Finance-Operate (DBFO) road projects in the UK are used in the study.

  • And Mineralization in the United Kingdom Faculty Of
    A THESIS entitled THE INTERPRETATION OF LEAD Ate ZINC STREAM SEDIMENT ANOMALIES RELATED TO CONTAMINATION AND MINERALIZATION IN THE UNITED KINGDOM Submitted for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in the FACULTY OF SCIENCE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF LONDON by DENNIS TAYLOR Royal School of Mires Imperial College. May 1968 ABSTRACT Using the results of a multi-element stream sediment survey previously carried out over the environs of the Halkyn-Minera and Derbyshire Pb-Zn orefields as a base, a study was made of the relationship of anomalous metal contents to both natural and contaminated sources. Pb, Pb-Zn, and. Zn anomalies were found to be associated with contamination from mining and smelting and to various natural sources, with Mo, Ba, Cu and Ag as the principal associated elements. Smelting methods have changed with time and these variations are reflected in the metal associations found in the contaminated sediments, Pb or Pb-Ba anomalies with little or no Zn characterize smelters of early date and increasing amounts of Zn are found in more modern smelters, while very high Zn levels characterize anomalies derived from later metallurgical sites such as brass or galvanized iron industrial sites. The Pb:Zn ratio varies widely in natural anomalies, being influenced by the metal content of the primary mineralization, the history of leaching and erosion of the deposit and the mode of derivation of the stream sediment anomaly. The chemical form of the Pb and Zn in stream sediment anomalies differs systematically in a manner rslated to the nature of the source and the method of derivation of the anomaly.

  • 1 Introduction
    12 Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Background For commentators such as Urry (1990) and Woodward (2004), contemporary tourism has its roots in religious pilgrimage. Whilst this is contestable, for some domestic and overseas visitors, a holiday may, for a minority, incorporate twenty or thirty minutes in a parish church at some point. The roles have been reversed from travel for religious purposes incorporating secular pleasure, compare The Canterbury Tales and, perhaps, the Camino de Santiago (Murray & Graham 1997), to tourism including a visit or two to a religious establishment as just one of the destination attractions (Busby 2002; Olsen & Timothy 2006; Woodward 2004). “A resurgence of interest in visiting sacred sites” is how Shackley (2002) explains the recent growth in visitor numbers to cathedrals and churches despite a decline in the importance of religion in society as a whole (Wilson 1985). Indeed, this form is argued to be one of the major growth sectors in international tourism (Russell 1999; Woodward 2004). Empirical data to confirm these views is, however, quite limited; in fact, both Olsen & Timothy (2006) and Vukonić (1998) emphasise that it is one of the most under-researched aspects of tourism. Nonetheless, at a time of declining church congregations, it is interesting to note the development of documentaries over the last five years, by the BBC, featuring rural churches; whilst A Country Parish and A Seaside Parish paid only passing attention to the physical structures, A Passion for Churches, launched on 28 December 2005, emphasised the quality of building heritage – mention is also made of visitors‟ book comments in episode one, featuring St Hywyns, Aberdaron.
