4.  Scope of services

The national policy applies to the provision of public infrastructure and any related ancillary services which involve private investment or financing. In Victoria, the term infrastructure can extend beyond physical assets to encompass major information technology procurements. However, the policy does not apply to the general procurement of services by the Government where public infrastructure is not being provided.

The Victorian Government is responsible for the delivery of core services in a PPP project. The determination of core and non-core services will occur on a case-by-case basis at the early planning stages of each infrastructure project.
