Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The Deputy has raised a number of issues. The remit of NAMA is to make and return a profit to the Irish taxpayer. While NAMA was expected to end its responsibilities by 2020, it may have finished its remit some time before that. As I said, that remit is to return a profit, where possible, for the Irish taxpayer.

The Deputy said €4 billion is required now. As we meet here, the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government is meeting with all the chief executives of all the local authorities around the country. They have been given their money and given their targets and objectives and told to get on with the job.
