Josepha Madigan: Suffice to say, I agree with Deputy MacSharry. I think this is potentially very explosive. There is a question of fabrication here, and who is telling the truth and who is not. It is quite shocking to read this letter. I would be looking for a detailed response from NAMA and also to bring its representatives - particularly Mr. Stewart, who has already given some evidence on this issue...

Josepha Madigan: I understand Deputy Cassells' point but we have to allow NAMA the opportunity to respond to this as well because we are not a court. I accept the chief executive officer put his name to this. NAMA has also given its submissions here. We need to be careful that we do not have people proven guilty until it is done.
- Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (10 Nov 2016)

- Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (10 Nov 2016)
Josepha Madigan: We must be very careful. I am not taking sides at all here, but looking at it very objectively, NAMA has come before the committee and given evidence, and we have a letter from Tom Rice. He states he will not give evidence on very serious assertions he put in his letter. If he cannot make it to this committee room, somebody else should be in his stead because he has put his name to this...
