How to ensure privatisation serves the public good
Manage episode 462004744 series 2740255
Privatising public services like trains, hospitals or prisons — is a proven vote loser. But governments of both the left and right continue to privatise — when it suits them. And it suits them, it seems, when large sums of money are needed to pay down debt, or when a government seeks to off load risk and liability to the private sector. So, what conditions should be applied to ensure that privatisations truly serve the public interest and don't simply decrease competition?
Guests
Owen Hayford — Strategic legal and commercial adviser, Infralegal
Nino Bucci — Justice and Courts Reporter, The Guardian
Richard Denniss — economist and public policy commentator
Professor Graeme Samuel — Monash University Business School
Benjamin Goodair – Senior post-doctoral researcher, Oxford Universty
