I thank the Minister. Has he had an opportunity to look at the proposal by the three banks in which the State has an interest, AIB, Bank of Ireland and Permanent TSB, in respect of Synch Payments, a service these banks suggest will provide for instant payments? Some people believe it is an anti-competitive measure. Has the Minister had an opportunity to look at that? Does he have any comments to make in that regard?
