Again, however, the Government is moving in the opposite direction. It is saying that the State is not going to deliver social housing but will rely on the private sector to do so. It is intent on incentivising private developers and removing any obstacles they claim are getting in the way of the delivery of that housing but all the developers are trying to do is figure out how they can profit from this exercise. NAMA confirmed that today at a meeting of the Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform. It is not just me who is saying this - NAMA confirmed it today.
