Mr. Kenneth Jordan:

It is not our policy area, but I asked the BPFI that question. The answer should come from that body, but it told me Ulster Bank has centralised all items in a single location. It also told me that, with other banks, when individual branches closed, the policy was to move items to the nearest branch. It is not a dramatic movement if a Bank of Ireland or AIB branch closed. I am relaying the information from the BPFI but I think it answers some of the queries.
