NAMA Staff Qualifications

The Minister spoke about the NTMA reviewing the contracts and mentioned new employees and those seeking promotion. We are aware that this issue does not just affect NAMA, it also affects employees who have been seconded to the Department of Finance. There are concerns about banks poaching certain people who worked in the banking unit within the Department who may have information. A period of from one to three months is not acceptable, but six months also seems to be quite limited. I believe the Minister wanted to go beyond this in the commitment he gave. Can these provisions not apply to existing staff within the Department who could be seconded, as well as those in the NTMA or NAMA?
