Specifically an arrangement is a service concession arrangement when the following
conditions apply:
(a) the grantor controls or regulates what services the operator must provide using the
infrastructure assets, to whom, and at what price; and
(b) the grantor controls, through ownership, beneficial entitlement or otherwise, any
significant residual interest in the assets at the end of the term of the
arrangement.
Where the infrastructure assets have no significant residual value at the end of the
term of the arrangement (ie the arrangement is for its entire useful life), then the
arrangement shall be accounted for as a service concession if the conditions in (a) are
met.
