Content - Summary
The present Toolkit forms part of the approach for exploiting and improving private provision. It supplements existing work such as the 1997 Toolkits on private participation in water and the extensive work funded by the Public–Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility, including New Designs for Water and Sanitation Transactions, the toolkit on labor issues in infrastructure reform, and the toolkit on hiring advisers to help design and implement private participation—to name just three.
The present Toolkit is addressed to governments—municipal, provincial, and central—whose strategy for improving water services includes using the private sector, and aims to help them design arrangements that lead to better services and greater access. It sets out the big issues they must grapple with, describes their main options, and offers a view on the advantages and disadvantages of those options. In so doing, it aims to put the governments in a position where they can make choices that, given their circumstances, do most to improve water services.
