Does the Taoiseach have a problem with that?
- Leaders' Questions (16 Jun 2015)
Mick Wallace: ..., might get preferential treatment is not much of a shock to many. I do not think he is the only powerful individual or consortium who may have got favourable treatment from State-owned institutions.

- Other Questions: NAMA Operations (23 Jun 2016)

- Leaders' Questions (26 Nov 2015)
Mick Wallace: It has nothing to do with me; it has to do with the people. NAMA has failed to serve them properly. There are serious question marks.

It is in the public interest that it is available. NAMA is a public body. Would the...
