Summary: This page contains correspondence between Perkins Bacon & Co and representatives of The National Bank and Bank of Scotland regarding the recall and redesign of £5 notes at the Balina branch due to concerns about forgeries and the quality of the note paper. The letter discusses the impracticality of altering notes at only one branch and addresses complaints about the paper quality.
