The State spent over €103m renting property from Nama-hit developers, beef barons, business tycoons, banks and even religious organisations last year.

CONTROVERSIAL property tycoons, Liam Carroll and Bernard McNamara are pocketing millions for property they rent to the state — almost €117 million each year.

AFTER bailing out big-time property developers, taxpayers are shelling out millions in rent every year to some of those same developers to house the offices of the state.
