If not would you be interested if the opportunity were available to bid to run some but not all of these service groupings? If so, which groups of services would you be interested in bidding for? Please consider, and explain, if you would consider the opportunity as part of a consortium and if so which service areas you might consider? What would be your preferred length of contract, 5, 10 or 15 years and why? Would you be able to bring capital investment into the assets to improve services? If you did that how would you seek to achieve a return on investment?
