These reforms have culminated in the institutional re-alignment of key institutions in the sector. These PPP reforms in the history of Ghana were in two forms: The first form relates to assets ownership that remains with the public authority or government and it is known as Service and Management Contracts / Lease and Concessions .The second form where the assets are all or partially in private ownership (Kerf et al, 1998).
