It is not much use talking about it now but in the old system, if you walked into a bank with €10,000 or €20,000, or cheques or assorted moneys and so on, lodged it and looked at the account afterwards, it was three or four days before it was credited to your account. Mr. Kincaid has answered my question. In the meantime, the bank had use of it.
