Ms Brenda McVeigh:

We certainly have no control over private institutions like banks in terms of their day-to-day functions but if it is simply on the basis of applying anti-money-laundering rules, it would be a slippery slope for them because those rules are supposed to be applied on a pan-EU basis. Institutions across the EU would be doing the same thing but I am not hearing that anywhere across the EU. We can certainly check it out.
