The Parliament adopts the third reading of the new version of the Law "On Public-Private Partnership"

At the Parliament meeting on June 18, 2019, the draft Law “On Public-Private Partnership” was reviewed and approved in the third reading.

The draft law was developed in order to simplify procedures and reduce time periods in the process of preparing public-private partnership projects, selecting a private partner, and reducing the time frame for holding a tender.

The draft law was developed taking into account the practice of applying the current law "On Public-Private Partnership" for the first PPP project "Organization of hemodialysis services in the cities of Bishkek, Osh and Jalal-Abad." In the course of the project implementation, a number of procedural and temporary obstacles were identified during the preparation of the project by the public partner, in the development of tender documents and approvals from various government agencies.

In this regard, a new draft law has been developed, the essential differences of which from the current one are the provisions relating to the conceptual apparatus, the procedures for preparing the draft PPP projects and the selection of a private partner, and the timing of the tender.
