Points to make

-*

-*

Both the AR and the Airport will be heavily supported by commercial lending. This is also private participation. (See breakdown at bottom of page).

Roads, tunnels and bridges can be privatised on a toll basis. However, it would not be acceptable to the public to have many tolls charged along the route to the airport.

We have exhausted all possible sources of private funding for the ACP : further private investment would not be forthcoming

capital without a high level of Government financial support, either in terms of forgoing premium, or in terms of guarantees, equity or loans.
