Calls for new probe of how Nama does business following BBC investigation

Fresh calls have been made for an independent State investigation into how Nama conducts its business after a BBC investigation into the sale of the group’s multibillion-euro property portfolio in the North.

Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams, Social Democrats co-founder Catherine Murphy, and Independent TD Mick Wallace all said a detailed examination of the new allegations is now needed.

BBC’s Spotlight programme on Monday broadcast secretly recorded conversations involving former Nama adviser Frank Cushnahan, who was central to the sale of the agency’s Project Eagle portfolio.
