NAMA Financial Statement 2020 and Special Report 111 of the Comptroller and Auditor General
9:30 am
Mr. Brendan McDonagh:
No. I have not taken a bonus in terms of NAMA since it started. As I said to the Deputy's colleague earlier, a modest number of bonuses were paid to a limited number of people in 2019. There were no bonuses paid in 2020. Where people have particular skill sets, we may pay them, but we, and the board, are also mindful of the economic conditions. We only pay bonuses where we feel it is absolutely necessary. They are quite modest.
