Because it is in the public interest to do so. I am asking the Taoiseach to ensure NAMA prioritises the interests of the citizens and the taxpayers. Will he establish an independent audit of remaining NAMA properties to determine which of these could be made available for social and economic development? I repeat my first question: will the Taoiseach agree to a suspension of non-contracted disposals activity for a time-limited examination given the public concern? These are issues of major public concern. Will the Taoiseach do these two things I am asking him to do?
