153.

Amharc ar fhreagraI can confirm to the Deputy that there were no meetings between my Department and NAMA's Northern Ireland Advisory Committee. The principal responsibility of the Northern Ireland Advisory Committee was to advise the NAMA Board in relation to strategy for its Northern Ireland assets. The Deputy will note that the NAMA Board, with my agreement as Minister for Finance, having regard to the implications of the sale of the Northern Ireland loan portfolio (Project Eagle) for the Northern Ireland Advisory Committee, resolved to dissolve the Committee following its meeting on 8th September 2014.
