lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, the then Fianna Fáil Government’s response to the financial and banking crisis in Ireland included well-known pillars such as the burdening of private debt on ordinary families and the imposition of a savage austerity agenda, but it also included another pillar, the establishment of NAMA (the National Asset Management Agency), set up as a ‘bad bank’ – although even those of us who opposed its creation failed to imagine just how bad it would become. It is now clear that NAMA’s sale in 2014 of its Project Eagle property portfolio in the North of Ireland was based on bribery and insider trading. Assets were sold to a US vulture fund at a shocking discount of 72% – billions below their value. All NAMA transactions must be suspended immediately. It is clear that the Irish Government cannot delay a commission of investigation much longer. Irish taxpayers should not have to wait for another state aid investigation to get to the truth about how they have been fleeced."@en1
