Telling indeed.  I hope they do not go for the public-private 
partnership model as that works out much more expensive in the long run 
and there can be problems down the line.  Scotland had a major issue 
with a similar funding model just after Easter when a school wall 
collapsed.  Checks of other buildings built by the same firm under the 
same agreement showed faults with a number of them as well.  Basically 
the work had not been of good quality and if things go wrong then the 
statutory authority has to pick up the tab.
