Leaders' Questions (16 Feb 2017)

Dara Calleary: ...few weeks ago that, in his view, there did not seem to be adequate grounds for a commission? That does not suggest to me that the Minister is "completely cut off". The question is one of whether NAMA delivered the best return possible on taxpayers' money. In the view of the Comptroller and Auditor General, our spending watchdog, it did not. The notion that the Minister could be cut off...

Leaders' Questions (16 Feb 2017)

Dara Calleary: ..., from which it seems to be reversing. As the Minister knows, it was reported in 2015 that Project Eagle, a loan portfolio of 850 properties across Northern Ireland, was sold for €1.6 billion by NAMA. There is considerable concern that this was not the true value of this amount of property and that the true value was not sought or delivered. The Comptroller and Auditor General...

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

Dara Calleary: ...Government has not intervened. The Minister stated today, in his homage on "Today with Sean O'Rourke", that it would be illegal for him to get involved in such matters.

National Asset Management Agency: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (21 Oct 2015)

Dara Calleary: ...very good employees; the best in the world. However, when companies such as this use it in this manner, it explains why we must defend our regime all over the world and why the State is getting such a bad reputation.

Housing Affordability: Motion [Private Members] (27 Jan 2015)

Dara Calleary: ...cannot come up with a way of matching the two. Any elected Member of this House who has any kind of sense would be in favour of a scheme that would involve the completion of houses that are in the control of NAMA or the State-owned banks. Such a scheme would create employment and give a craft to people who are without employment. Former construction workers continue to constitute the...

Protection of Residential Mortgage Account Holders Bill 2014: Second Stage (Resumed) [Private Members] (5 Mar 2014)

Topical Issue Debate: Upward-Only Rent Reviews (26 Mar 2013)

Dara Calleary: The judgment yesterday gives us the opportunity to discuss this matter today. I must clarify for Deputy McNamara that I did not make a direct link. Unfortunately, the Minister did not get a chance to address the work of NAMA. Can it be confirmed that any NAMA rent deal will be entered into the new property leases database? Will the Minister give us an idea as to when that database will be...
