There is extensive correspondence from NAMA on that. It states, first, that NAMA has no role in relation to either the formulation or implementation of public health policy and it believes it would be inappropriate for any officer of NAMA to comment on Government policy in this area; and, second, NAMA is precluded under sections 99 and 202 of the NAMA Act, similar to restrictions on other lenders, from commenting on the financial affairs of individual debtors or even on matters relating to their properties or such assets.
