This change would remove the need for private sector companies to bid as part of a consortium.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#2-<\/strong> <strong>The right to appeal:<\/strong> Investors who have their pre-approvals rejected would be given the right to appeal the decision.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#3- You don\u2019t necessarily have to wait for the state \u2014 private sector firms could propose <\/strong><strong>projects:<\/strong> Companies would be able to submit proposals to implement new projects, provided they handle the feasibility studies and the financing. The statement also says that projects must be \u201cinnovative\u201d and \u201cachieve the government\u2019s economic or social interest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why is this important?<\/strong> The amendments cut some of the time-consuming groundwork needed to land a PPP, including finding other companies to join the bid or waiting for the state to carry out feasibility studies and decide to offer the project. That last bit is key: If you believe in a project, you can now put it on the state\u2019s radar all by your lonesome.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The state\u2019s ambitious state ownership policy document notes the gov\u2019t will sell down assets to private sector firms <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/18e2c586-6504-44dd-b177-1092c1299114\">through PPPs<\/a><\/strong> \u2014 and industries including <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/0f838dc3-3a04-4cc4-bec6-673b35eb99ff\">electric and gas utilities<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/265e6474-f42a-4478-be70-6b131b38bf25\">pharma<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/265e6474-f42a-4478-be70-6b131b38bf25\">education<\/a> have been pushing for more involvement through a more efficient and flexible PPP framework. It\u2019s also good news on the IMF talks front, as mobilizing private sector investment in state-funded mega-projects is one aspect under the lamplight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PPPs have so far been slow moving:<\/strong> Passed in 2010, the legislation sought to put in place a regulatory framework to attract more private investment into government projects. Last year a total of <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/38f81122-c8f8-45f3-9dfb-aae911cea806\">USD 5.23 bn<\/a> was spent on infrastructure PPPs with Bombardier, Orascom and Arab Contractors accounting for the bulk of it through the Cairo <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/08\/06\/egypt-signs-usd-4-5-bn-agreement-for-monorails-to-giza-and-new-capital\/\">monorail<\/a> contract.<\/p>\n<p><strong>USUFRUCT FEES ARE SET-<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Cabinet approved a draft decision that sets the prices of industrial land offered to <\/strong><strong>investors under the usufruct system<\/strong>, it said in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/EgyptianCabinet\/posts\/pfbid0h8c7iJ2nVxBmf5aQWVhRNLux45dkRRKD3MxxwKXuuYPMpLt3MmpmHRddMXH42nPwl\">a statement<\/a>. Companies would pay an annual fee equal to 5% of the cost of the land for the first four years. A 7% annual increase would be tacked onto the fee in the fourth and fifth years. The fee would then be set at 10% of the cost of the land for the remainder of the arrangement. The statement refers to \u201ca detailed breakdown of the prices\u201d outlining the price structure for industrial land but does not provide further details.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why is this important? <\/strong>It\u2019s a step in the right direction as part of a package of measures cabinet plans to take, all with the aim of helping expand local manufacturing, something that <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/dfa23d27-18c1-4d50-9861-45bbc3d54975\">industrial players<\/a> have been pushing for. The government <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3cSMEoH\">says<\/a> pricing has been determined according to the cost of utilities, which it says reduces the cost for investors. This will help manufacturers direct investments towards production lines, machinery and equipment, instead of spending more of their capital in paying land fees, it says.<\/p>\n<p><em>CLARIFICATION- This story was amended on 8 September, 2022 to correct the annual fee increase for industrial land under the usufruct system.
