Urban Regeneration and Housing (Amendment) Bill 2018: Second Stage [Private Members] (3 Jul 2018)

Clare Daly: ...on the right road when, unless it moves on this, it will only make matters worse. Land speculation and hoarding are at the core of much of what is wrong with our housing market. Also at that core is NAMA's interference. I will cite a brief example from my area. A group of individuals had been trying to purchase the old rugby club in Malahide from NAMA since 2015. They did not want to...

Written Answers — Department of Housing, Planning, and Local Government: NAMA Receivers (12 Jun 2018)

Clare Daly: 1328. To ask the Minister for Housing, Planning, and Local Government the reason the receiver acting for NAMA has been allowed to appeal against a decision agreed in 2017 between all the parties concerned, including NAMA, to set aside 900 social and affordable homes as part of the Poolbeg West strategic development zone, SDZ (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter....

Industrial Development (Amendment) Bill 2018: Second Stage (28 Mar 2018)

Clare Daly: .... I find this shocking. We give over our airports to the US for use and we give over our taxation to Apple. We tell multinationals not to worry, they will not have to pay tax here. We are all aware of NAMA and the great vulture fund sell-off and what is happening now with the data centres. If this was not enough, we are now flogging thousands of properties to vulture funds at...

Planning and Development (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2017: Second Stage (13 Jul 2017)

Clare Daly: .... It is an incredible irony that a housing co-operative in Dublin could recently manage to build an entire estate of houses and sell them for €140,000 per unit at the same time that developers in NAMA tell us they can only build houses at a cost of €330,000 per unit. Somebody is not telling the truth and I do not think it is the co-operative because it has delivered the...

Other Questions: Defence Forces Medicinal Products (17 May 2017)

Clare Daly: ...the lives of Defence Forces' personnel and put them into a similar position to Ms McCole? Does he want to ruin his own reputation, just as the reputation of the present Minister with responsibility for NAMA, Deputy Michael Noonan, was impacted on by his treatment of Ms McCole? We must own up to our mistakes, discontinue the use of this failed drug and remove it now.

Statute of Limitations (Amendment) Bill 2017: Second Stage [Private Members] (6 Apr 2017)

Clare Daly: ...over ordinary people's heads for six years or more. There is an irony in this because we are quite happy to let debtors disappear down the memory hole if they are big enough. That, after all, is why NAMA exists. The State picked up the tab for €42 billion in developer debts when NAMA was established That is enough to establish, and fund for 50 years, a single tier public health...

Planning and Development (Housing) and Residential Tenancies Bill 2016: Report Stage (15 Dec 2016)

Clare Daly: ...being made. Some of these measures are more about the banks' balance sheets than concern for tenants and tenant's rights. Mr. Aidan Regan of the school of politics in UCD summed it up accurately. He states:If NAMA or the banks fire sell housing assets to solve the housing crisis, then all those under performing loans/mortgages will be exposed. The debt dynamics of the banks will be...

Clare Daly: 19. To ask the Minister for Finance his views on the serious allegations and revelations regarding NAMA's activities both North and South; the steps he has taken to address these matters; his plans to freeze all NAMA activity until such time as a full and thorough inquiry into all aspects of NAMA's work has concluded; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [27542/16]

Written Answers — Department of Public Expenditure and Reform: Office of Public Works Properties (27 Sep 2016)

Clare Daly: ...Reform if, in regard to the proposed move of his Department to Miesian Plaza, where it will pay approximately €9 million per year to lease space from a private entity, any examination of whether NAMA could supply property at a lower cost to his Department was made prior to this decision being made. [26910/16]

National Asset Management Agency: Motion [Private Members] (29 Jun 2016)

Clare Daly: ...because into the heart of this matter now comes the head of asset management in Dublin in this jurisdiction blowing a hole through the arguments of the Minister, those of the Taoiseach and those of NAMA that there has been no allegations of wrongdoing against NAMA. That is not the case. Two weeks ago Deputy Micheál Martin told the Dáil that the Government's position on NAMA was...

Dáil Reform: Statements (6 Apr 2016)

Clare Daly: ...it is without the right to recall. That is a very important provision. The issues of independent scrutiny and investigation were raised in a number of areas in the previous Dáil. We saw it in terms of Garda accountability, NAMA, the foster care scandal in the HSE, which was set up by the last Government, IBRC and so on, much of which was stalled and held in the hands of the...

Social Housing: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (27 Jan 2016)

Clare Daly: I am delighted that Fianna Fáil has robbed some of the points originally raised by Deputy Wallace a long time ago. The Government should compel the National Asset Management Agency, NAMA, to allocate at least 50% of the 20,000 units it is providing for social housing. Perhaps one of the reasons the Government is failing to address that sensible and practical solution to the delivery of...

Hospital Emergency Departments: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (14 Jan 2016)

Clare Daly: ...provider, however, that 90-bed facility is essentially lying idle. It has one full-time resident, which has been the case for almost a year. Former hotels in Finglas that are in the ownership of NAMA have been converted into nursing homes to generate profit for their owners. Articles in the business sections of our newspapers laud the business opportunities presented by nursing home...

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2015 [Seanad]: Committee and Remaining Stages (16 Dec 2015)

Clare Daly: ...and achieve his own objectives without scrutiny or oversight from anybody else. We can consider what the Minister for Finance, Deputy Michael Noonan, has called Dublin's Canary Wharf. He has told NAMA to basically go ahead and build it, and it has complied. Dublin's docklands has 22 ha. of undeveloped land, 75% of which is in the control of NAMA. The Minister has spoken about this...

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2015 [Seanad]: Committee and Remaining Stages (16 Dec 2015)

Clare Daly: ...land in order that we can have some quality, family-type living in the heart of the city centre. I refer to the points Deputy Wallace made about real estate investment trusts, REITs and the role of NAMA in distorting the market. What is happening is frightening. It is not just the numbers of units that have been handed over to US vulture funds but the Irish Residential Properties REIT...

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2015: Second Stage (10 Dec 2015)

Clare Daly: ...housing units. Why are these units not in progress? We know a grand total of 20 social housing units were completed by the second quarter of 2015, and this is without even looking at the question of NAMA into which I will not get. It is time we faced facts. There has been an absolutely shambolic approach to housing in the State, and to bring this legislation here at the eleventh hour...

Residential Tenancies (Amendment) (No.2) Bill 2012: From the Seanad (1 Dec 2015)

Clare Daly: ...far better across the board. The Minister of State referenced a few times that the biggest problem was supply, but I cannot take this seriously from the Government when I note what it has allowed NAMA to do. In the past month it has allowed the Project Arrow portfolio to be sold to Cerberus for less than €1 billion - €800 million - when it knows that 50% of that...
