Michael Noonan (Limerick City, Fine Gael)

It will be a question of how it works out. NAMA now has employees with significant experience in property development. It would be unreasonable to suggest just running the property portfolio and selling everything if by investing a few million euro it were possible to double the price that could be achieved on the sale. That should form part of what a property management company should do in the interest of the taxpayer thereby getting the maximum from it. The Deputy should call representatives of NAMA to appear before the Committee of Public Accounts if he wants a longer chat. Written Answers follow Adjournment.
