A plan to mandate that all government agencies and state entities accept or facilitate cash payments will be proposed by the minister of finance and approved by the cabinet, reports RTE.
Jack Chambers will inform his Cabinet colleagues that many people in society, especially the elderly, still prefer to pay with cash, thus it’s critical that they may continue to do so in their daily lives.
The policy also stipulates that monetary payments must be a part of any future agreements made between government agencies and outside organisations that request money from the general population, reports RTE.
