<p>The Department for Transport has an operational PFI Portfolio of 56 Projects. The
largest sub-sector of the portfolio is in street lighting, with 31 projects. The majority,
41 of our 56 PFI projects, are contracted by Local Authorities. The DfT’s PFI Portfolio
has a total Capital Value of £6.97bn. The PFI portfolio carries a total public sector
whole-life Unitary Charge liability of £33.7bn. The whole-life direct liability to
DfT is £29.5bn as PFI credits for local authority projects are topped up locally to
meet the unitary charge payments. For detailed data on when contracts became live,
their remaining term and the annual repayments, please refer to background note below.</p><p>

central government departments. This can be found here: <a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/private-finance-initiative-and-private-finance-2-projects-2018-summary-data"
