To ask the Minister for Finance if he will provide, in tabular form if possible, a list of the bank accounts used by his Department and separately any agencies within the remit of his Department; the purpose of each bank account and the financial institution the bank account is with; the total amount of any interest charged or bank fees incurred by his Department and separately by each agency in 2011 and anticipated figure for 2012; the percentage of payments issued by his Department and each agency which are issued electronically and if the Department agency has any special arrangement in place on the issue of bank charges and fees; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The information requested by the Deputy is contained in the table that follows this reply. My Department is a shared services provider and acts as agent for a number of other Government Departments/Offices in the making of payroll, pensions and general payments. Bank charges are one of the factors in decisions on the selection of new bank accounts following tendering processes. In many cases, interest charges do not arise for the Office of the Revenue Commissioners. Over 99% of payments issued by my Department are in electronic form. In the case of the Revenue Commissioners, 98% of payments are electronic and the figure is 100% for the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General.
