I welcome the chairman and chief executive officer of NAMA and compliment them on the update - as of June - in the report.

It is highly impressive and I note that Mr. Daly, as Chairman of the Revenue Commissioners and chairman of NAMA since its inception, certainly has given huge service to the State. I ask him to share his thoughts on NAMA and the challenging job it has been since its inception. What is his sense of the manner in which NAMA discharged its responsibilities and its mandate since its inception? Everybody has challenges and it is said "no problem, no business", but looking back retrospectively, what would he have done differently with regard to the board of NAMA and the people with which it deals? I seek Mr. Daly's thoughts on NAMA at this point in time.
