§ 5.
In carrying out § 2 of the Law of November 19th 1887 (R. G. Bl. No 133), the Orders' (Cheque and Clearing) Service of the Post Office Savings Bank is to be regulated by the rules existing with reference to them in the Post Office Savings Bank applied in such a manner as the alterations of the aforesaid Law as well as the following determinations render necessary.
§ 6.
The Post Office Savings Bank will keep separate the accounts and administration of the Orders' (Cheque and Clearing) Service from those of the Savings Service.
Participation in the Orders' (Cheque and Clearing) Service is also to be allowed to persons who are not depositors in the Savings Service. It will be granted on payment of a Guarantee-deposit, and of course if the participant wishes he can enter the Clearing as well as the Cheque Service.
In order to obtain permission to be a participant in the Orders' Service the person wishing to enter has to ask for an account to be opened and to pay in the Guarantee-deposit.
This request is to be made on one of the forms issued by the Post Office Savings Bank, which are to be delivered gratuitously at all post-offices and to be forwarded to Vienna post paid under an enclosure containing the sum for the desired Cheque and Receipt books.
To the Post Office Savings Bank belongs the right to refuse a request for admission as participant in the Orders' (Cheque and Clearing) Service without giving reasons (§ 4 of the Law).
The Guarantee-deposit is to be paid within a month at any Receiving Office after the grant of the said request by using a Receipt (Pay) certificate.
