Tim O' Brien, Irish Times wrote-

Dublin City Council has decided to opt for a public-private partnership (PPP) model to rejuvenate St. Michaels Estate in Inchicore.

But the decision has been criticised by Nexus Research [non-profit org.], which evaluates the government's Community Development Programme.
"Whatever about the suitability of PPPs in building roads and bridges", the model was not effective for longer-term urban regeneration, said Brian Dillon of Nexus.
