NOTE 27 – Public-Private and Public-Public Partnerships
Note Disclosure Requirements
These disclosure requirements are applicable to transferors of Public-Private and Public-Public Partnerships (PPPs).
Provide a description of the PPP arrangement in effect during the reporting period that includes the:
- General description of the PPP arrangement
- Basis, terms and conditions on which any variable payments are determined (not included in the measurement of the receivable for installment payments)
- Status of the project during the construction period (if applicable)
- Discount rate or rates applied to the measurement of the receivable for installment payments (if any)
- Amount of inflows of resources recognized in the reporting period for variable and other payments not previously included in the measurement of the receivable for installment payments — this includes inflows of resources related to residual value guarantees and termination penalties
- Nature and amounts of assets and deferred inflows of resources
- Nature and extent of rights retained by the transferor or granted to the operator
PPPs are separated into three types. The underlying PPP asset is either:
- Owned by the transferor and the underlying PPP asset will be improved by the operator
- A new asset purchased or constructed by the operator and the PPP either:
- Meets the definition of an SCA
- Does not meet the definition of an SCA
Include additional disclosures for PPP arrangements with guarantees and commitments by disclosing the:
- Identification
- Duration
- Significant contract terms
If the agency receives PPP installment payments, enter such data in the LNSS web application under PPP Installment Receivable.
For more information, see Public-Private and Public-Public Partnerships under Specialized Accounting.
Submit a copy of the agency’s Note 27 from its published AFR through the LNSS web application. The required format is a Microsoft Word document (latest version: docx) with header information that includes: agency name/number and note number/name. If Note 27 contains a table, include the table in the Word document — rather than as a separate Excel document or other database application file. If Note 27 does not apply, do NOT submit a note to indicate “not applicable.”
