A1, 2, 3 and 5 ✓ Correct
B1, 2, 3 and 4
C1, 2, 3, 4 and 5
D1, 3, 4 and 5
Correct answer: (A) 1, 2, 3 and 5 — Items 1, 2, 3 and 5 denote the public and private sectors coming together, so the answer is 1, 2, 3 and 5.
Explanation
★Items 1, 2, 3 and 5 denote the public and private sectors coming together, so the answer is 1, 2, 3 and 5.
★Public-private partnerships directly join the state and private firms in delivering services.
★Contracting out hands public functions to private providers, blurring the divide.
★New Public Management imports private business methods into the public sector.
★The governance model brings in private and civil-society actors alongside the state.
★The increasing role of ICT is a tool of modernisation rather than a merger of the two sectors.
★So item 4 does not by itself denote the convergence of public and private administration.
