Finance Bill 2016: Report Stage (Resumed) (23 Nov 2016)

Peter Burke: There is some misinformation on RCT, which is not a tax on income. It is a preliminary collecting tax for all other tax heads, such as VAT and income tax. By its very nature we cannot judge how much it takes in a year. There will be offsets from year to year because it must go to another position in the tax system. It is not a tax on income. It can misrepresent the facts when minus...

Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (22 Nov 2016)

Peter Burke: I welcome Mr. Long and thank him for presenting to the committee today. The closing price was a £1.24 billion deal. We have been made aware at this stage that first, the data room was managed by the client which was a major organ of the Irish State in one respect and backed by the taxpayer. Second, a verbal briefing was given at an initial meeting between Lazard and NAMA of which we...

Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (22 Nov 2016)

Peter Burke: I never said there was no advice. I said there was no advice in terms of strategy. We were told very clearly that Lazard did not invite in terms of the strategy - in terms of when to sell and whether a group of assets should be sold piecemeal or together. There was no advice on that. Second, there was no advice in terms of timing - when to sell. Lazard was given that instruction. Third,...

Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (22 Nov 2016)

In terms of Lazard getting the best value for its client, as a professional adviser, should Lazard not have asked its client at...

Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (22 Nov 2016)

Peter Burke: Whether the best outcome was achieved is obviously questionable in light of the report of the Comptroller and Auditor General laid before us. That is open to speculation and is what we must assess. At a basic level, it concerns me that in respect of the process surrounding this and the limitations placed upon Lazard's engagement that Lazard was reluctant to say it should advise a client to...
