Seán Fleming: Will the Government have to consult the EU on that or can it make its own decision?

Seán Fleming: Okay. I will move on to housing. I am probably going to come at it slightly differently from everybody else here. NAMA started off with one mission and that was its mission. Then, because of the housing crisis, it was asked to build houses and supply land. That is all very important, but it was not NAMA's main core objective or anything like that. It was a bit of a by-product. As I...

Seán Fleming: I was adding in the 10,000.

(20 Sep 2018)

Seán Fleming: I thought from our conversation this morning that 10,000 were done and another 42,000 could potentially be done.

Seán Fleming: I will explain what I am getting at. At the end of the day, approximately 20,000 houses will have been delivered by NAMA by 2020, or there or thereabouts.

Seán Fleming: I would put it in a different context. There are approximately 1.6 million houses in Ireland today. NAMA's contribution to the housing stock at the end of this process will be little more than 1% of this country's housing stock.

Comptroller and Auditor General Special Report No. 102: National Asset Management Agency Second Progress Report
(20 Sep 2018)

Seán Fleming: I am saying it is "Yes" and Mr. McDonagh knows it is "Yes". I think there is an assumption that NAMA is a key player in increasing the housing stock and solving the housing problem. I am just saying I think the general commentary has totally overstated the reality. When all is said and done, if NAMA adds 1% or 1.5% to the housing stock of the nation over ten years, that will be about it....

Seán Fleming: I am asking the witnesses to agree. Nobody in this building has this type of conversation. It is all about what we should all be doing. When all is said and done, other people are charged with building houses.

(20 Sep 2018)

Seán Fleming: Yes, in that period when very little else was going on. I want to ask about a completely different topic. I do not know whether it relates exclusively to Project Eagle or to other things. Can the witnesses tell me how much money NAMA would have been paid to Tughans Solicitors in Belfast for its services over recent years? They might tell me that this information is commercially sensitive....
