TD for Roscommon-Galway, Michael Fitzmaurice believes that access to cash must be protected
The passing of a new bill through the Dáil to guarantee access to ATMs in rural areas is being hailed a major milestone.
The legislation would ensure banks provide a minimum number of cash machines per 100 thousand people.
The bill was passed by TDs earlier this week and will now go before the Seanad.
