101 Mr. Perry asked the Minister for Finance if the moneys of a person (details supplied) will be released; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [20989/04]

This question relates to a national savings bond. The Central Bank and Financial Services Authority of Ireland, Dame Street, Dublin 2, is responsible for maintaining the register of such Irish Government securities. In the particular circumstances of this case I understand that certain documentation will be required before any moneys can be released and that therefore the query would be best addressed directly to the payments and securities settlements section of the bank, which will assist in finalising the matter.
