公私伙伴关系已被广泛采用,以提供基本的社会和经济基础设施和服务。然而,目前没有系统的机制来管理如何在公私伙伴关系项目的不同阶段捕捉社会关切。因此,本文主张重新思考支持公众参与的务实问题,并提出一个过程框架,将人民作为实施PPP计划的主要利益相关者。这一公私伙伴关系进程框架包含自下而上的参与性战略,使公众参与基础设施规划和决策变得清晰可见。有了这一新制定的框架和相关的参与战略,决策权可以从传统上掌握最终决策权的决策者转向通过积极参与的公民。这种战略可以帮助改善发展进程,减少出现前所未见的对立的风险,建立明确的责任和权利,并为公众投入创造机会。预计为PPP项目制定如此有效和真正的公众参与框架将有助于香港乃至世界其他地区的政府机构更好地实现公众对基础设施规划和政策制定不断变化的愿望和需求。(c)2012爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Public private partnerships (PPPs) have been widely adopted to provide essential social and economic infrastructure and services. However, there is currently no systematic mechanism governing how social concerns should be captured at different stages of a PPP project. This paper, Therefore, advocates a rethinking of the pragmatic issues underpinning public engagement and suggests a process framework that puts people as a major stakeholder for implementing PPP schemes. This public private people partnerships (P4) process framework embraces the bottom-up participative strategies which bring the public engagement clearly visible for infrastructure planning and policy making. With this newly developed framework and associated engagement strategies, decision-making power can deviate from policy makers, who are traditionally holding the ultimate decision authority, towards the citizens through proactive engagement. Such strategy can help improve the development process by moderating the risk of unfore-seen oppositions, building clear responsibilities and rights, and creating opportunities for public inputs. It is anticipated that formulating such effective and genuine public engagement framework for PPP projects would assist government bodies, not only in Hong Kong but also other parts of the world, to better realise the changing public aspirations and demands for infrastructure planning and policy formulation.
