NAMA transparency legislation
Seamus Healy asks when legislation making NAMA more transparent and subject to freedom-of-information law will be introduced; the Tánaiste expects its heads to go to the finance committee this session.
The programme for Government promised legislation to make NAMA transparent and accountable and to make it subject to the Freedom of Information Acts. The Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Howlin, has promised this a number of times and may be able to help the Tánaiste in this regard. When will this legislation be brought before the House?

I understand it is hoped that heads of a Bill dealing with these matters will be sent to the finance committee of the House this session.

Deputy Mattie McGrath could learn from his colleague, who got an answer.
