I am advised that NAMA's policy guidelines provide that wherever feasible the sale of property by NAMA debtors or receivers or the sale of loans by the Agency shall be openly marketed. The marketing strategy for any given asset is determined by a range of factors, including asset class, size, value and location. I note in this respect the Comptroller and Auditor General's (C&AG) finding, which is set out in its third special report on NAMA, that almost all NAMA property disposals examined by it had been sold through an open competitive process, or with testing of disposal prices against market valuation. The C&AG concluded that "this provides reasonable assurance that the prices obtained were the best on offer in the market at the time a property was sold".
