AIB is to meet with officials from the Department of An Taoiseach in the coming days over its decision to remove cash services from 70 of its 170 branches.

The bank has also been contacted by the Oireachtas finance committee to face questions over the move, which has been labelled as outrageous by committee chairman John McGuinness.
