Ruairí Quinn
Question:192 Mr. Quinn asked the Minister for Finance if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the Central Bank of Ireland has advised the General Register Office, Joyce House, that cheques, drafts and money orders for amounts less than £50 are not acceptable for lodgement due to the high administration costs involved; the way in which people living abroad can send £5.50 in notes and coins in the post to obtain a birth certificate; if he will request that the Central Bank set aside this ruling; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
