While NAMA is operating in accordance with law I cannot interfere in any way as a Minister in the commercial decisions or commercial processes undertaken by NAMA but if, on the other hand, something totally untoward happened there is power in the Act for the Minister to intervene to ensure the purposes of the Act are fulfilled. One of the purposes of the Act is to get best value for the taxpayer.
