Confidence in Government: Motion (15 Feb 2017)

Mick Wallace: ...that we had confidence in the Taoiseach's Government. The lack of fairness during the past six years and the failure to deal honestly with corruption in the hierarchy of An Garda Síochána and NAMA are too striking. However, this matter is not just a matter of justice for Maurice McCabe and other whistleblowers. Maurice McCabe would be the first to stress why he put his head...

Mattie McGrath: ...behalf. This is new politics but it will have to change if we do not get fair play and equality of esteem. Commitments were given around the need to establish a commission of investigation into NAMA's involvement in Project Eagle and this is not acceptable. Deputy Wallace has raised this on countless occasions over the past two or three years. He is elected by the people to do so and...

Mick Wallace: ...Deputy saw the figures on the empty units in Dublin. A huge number of them are in the possession of different financial sectors. The Deputy was complaining about the local authorities as against NAMA offering them units. If there is a battle between the merits of how NAMA behaves and how our local authorities are behaving, NAMA will not win. The Deputy referred to the fact that the...

Mick Wallace: ...high. The starting figure on the rents is also too high. The whole structure of it is nuts. I will conclude with some lovely quotes from an interesting individual who has become very wealthy. He originally worked for NAMA and, very interestingly, he gained from the whole process. We will be bringing more information to the Chamber on this in the new year in order to provide greater...

Mick Wallace: ...of a few projects that are coming on stream. The average price of supplying a house through the local authority in Wexford is going to be under €160,000, including services. When I hear the Government tell us about the wonderful idea of NAMA supplying 20,000 units which will sell for approximately €330,000 each, I do not know what planet it is living on. Why would the...

Secure Rents and Tenancies Bill 2016: Second Stage [Private Members] (30 Nov 2016)

Mick Wallace: ...the guys with the money. For the life of me, I do not understand why the Government is not organising the local authorities to build social and affordable housing on land owned by the people. The notion of NAMA building on land owned by the people and selling those properties for €330,000, which most people in Ireland who need a house cannot afford, does not make any sense.

Topical Issue Debate: Mortgage Lending (24 Nov 2016)

Mick Wallace: ...we are doing in terms of the provision of housing. The Government introduced a help-to-buy scheme, which already drove up prices. This will drive them up as well. We are talking about letting NAMA build 20,000 houses that will cost approximately €330,000 each. Why does the Government not empower local authorities to build houses on the State-owned land NAMA is working on...

Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed) (24 Nov 2016)

Marc MacSharry: Cerberus told the committee that Brown Rudnick had told it in April 2015 about the Northern Ireland Law Society investigation into Tughans. I know that NAMA told the committee in July 2015 that the first time it was aware of this was when Deputy Mick Wallace had mentioned it in the Dáil in July 2015. If Brown Rudnick had told Cerberus in April 2015, was NAMA not available in April 2015?

Mick Wallace: I will just finish with this one. Beginning, "Hi", it states that the businessman had a very good meeting with Frank yesterday, and on the NAMA bank debt issue, he has a draft of the agreement they all should sign, along with Frank, to ensure that they not only get a percentage of the money being invested but also a percentage of the special purpose vehicle and the profits to be made when...
