There is a police investigation under way in Ireland, the UK and Germany. We will ask for a breakdown of the loss in the meantime. We will also put the issue on our agenda for the autumn.

No. 1480 is an anonymous item of correspondence regarding land in Ballsbridge which the correspondent states is owned by a particular developer in the National Asset Management Agency, NAMA. I have received a copy and I know some other members did. We have not circulated the correspondence electronically because it may be defamatory. However, it does raise several general questions that we should put to NAMA. The correspondence is to be noted, and the committee will write to NAMA concerning the issues raised, with anything potentially defamatory redacted. The same topic is addressed by an article on the front page of The Irish Times this morning.
