Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 22 September 2015
290. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Finance in relation to agreements made with construction companies or developers in the National Asset Management Agency, who are remediating unsold houses damaged by pyritic heave, to enable sale of these houses, if this remediation complies, in all particulars, to Irish Standard 398 of 2013; and if he will put these agreements before Dáil Éireann. [30483/15]
View answerI am advised that NAMA has advanced substantial funding through its debtors and receivers for the remediation of structural defects, including pyritic heave, in properties securing its loans.
NAMA's debtors and receivers, like any other construction company or developer, are required to carry out all required works, including structural remediation, in accordance with statutory building and planning obligations.
NAMA does not have a role in the monitoring of these building standards, which is a matter for the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government and the relevant statutory regulatory bodies.
