And why not.
Deputy Pearse Doherty made some points, to which the Minister responded, about the report on Project Eagle to be published tomorrow by the Committee of Public Accounts. Previously the Minister has said that he had full confidence in both NAMA and the Comptroller and Auditor General. The reports are that the Committee of Public Accounts report will strongly back the Comptroller and Auditor General against NAMA. In respect of the two entities saying two different things, only one can be accurate. What position does that put the Minister in? Does he wish to revise his estimate of having full confidence in both if it is the case that the Comptroller and Auditor General has been very critical of NAMA, a view now backed by the Committee of Public Accounts?
