Written answers

NAMA is obliged to deal with the principal private residences of its debtors on a case-by-case basis by reference, inter alia, to all relevant legislation and the particular security arrangements in place. NAMA advises that its approach is to ensure that any equity in a debtor's principal private residence must be available to NAMA to apply towards debt repayment. Agreements reached with debtors in this context may include a requirement to dispose of their principal private residence and to replace it with one that is appropriate to their means and their financial circumstances.
