Chancellor Norman Lamont's launch of the Private Finance Initiative in his Autumn Statement of 12 November 1992, allowing private consortia to design, build, finance, and operate public assets (hospitals, schools, prisons, roads) in exchange for unitary-charge service payments over 25–30 year contracts.

Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
