Besides, projects in underdeveloped areas and those with important security-defence significance where there is low transport demand also need higher ratio of State capital to make them feasible when calling for private capital.
In its proposal to the NA, the Government recommended raising the cap on State’s contribution in PPP infrastructure projects to 70% from the current 50%.
Minister of Planning and Investment Nguyen Chi Dung said it is necessary to lift the cap on state contribution to ensure the projects’ feasibility, but if the ceiling is too high, the meaning of PPP will be lost.
The ratio of 70-75% is rational, however, it could be higher in several projects, he said, adding he welcomed NA deputies’ opinions on the issues to complete the PPP law./.
