Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Authorised Push Payments Fraud: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. John Palmer:

Yes, I have already mentioned that the Department of Finance supports the database and would like to see that come through.

In terms of the compensation mechanism, I think we have to say that is a matter that needs to be looked at. I can explain how we expect to be looking at that in the coming year or so.

Regarding confirmation of payee, I do not see any problem with that. The proposal has only come out today so we have not gone to the Minister about it yet. However, it is already a feature of the single euro payments area, SEPA, instant regulation that should be heading towards trilogues shortly.
