Seán Fleming: Mr. Rowntree is saying that there was a chapter specific to NAMA dealing with different methods of valuation, depending on what happened to the land. That is highly commercially-sensitive information.

Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (13 Oct 2016)

Seán Fleming: We did not know there was such a specific report in existence. We really appreciate Mr. Rowntree's help on this. We will have to chase NAMA for part of the information. Was there any information in that NAMA chapter which linked any of their major debtors to the particular lands?

I know Mr. Rowntree did not and the board never discussed it but if someone had debtor-specific information and had that report, he or she could match the two in the blink of an eye. Does Mr. Rowntree understand-----

Seán Fleming: I must qualify this by saying that it could only be done if someone breached corporate governance rules. If there was no breach of corporate governance, such a link would not be made. If there was a breach, however, a child of two could put the pieces together.

Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (13 Oct 2016)

Seán Fleming: Let us be clear, the approach by Pimco on day one was initiated by two major NAMA debtors. We have all read about that. They went to different people and put a plan together. I read somewhere that the five or six debtor groupings represented 85% of the total loan book at the end of the day. Therefore, it would not take much to link the five or six people to this chapter of the report that...

Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (13 Oct 2016)

Seán Fleming: Mr. Rowntree has been most helpful. He has provided some information of which this committee was not fully aware. There is information in the system and we will ask NAMA for a copy of the report. It would have been nice had NAMA told us about it when its representatives were here for several hours recently. We will ask NAMA for that now. If there are no other questions, I propose that we...
