Cash Dispensing: Sutton

Question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what information the Treasury holds on the number of (a) free-to-use and (b) fee-charging ATMs in the London Borough of Sutton in each year since 2015.

Answer

The Government does not hold information on the number of ATMs in the London Borough of Sutton. Data on the annual total number of ATMs in the UK since 1998 – including the split between free-to-use and pay-to-use ATMs – is publicly available on the LINK website. LINK also publish information on ATM numbers by Parliamentary Constituency for recent periods. Furthermore, LINK publish monthly data on their Financial Inclusion Programme.

The Government-established Payment Systems Regulator (PSR) continues to monitor developments in ATM provision. The PSR has used its powers to hold LINK to account over its commitments to preserve the broad geographic spread of the ATM network.
