DAY 7
Gringotts Lockdown Continues
The lockdown of Gringotts Bank has reached a full week of closure. People up and down the breadth of the country are now beginning to become concerned over the lack of access. While most families have some galleons on hand, it has been reported that a number of families are down to the last few knuts on hand as the closure reaches a week in length.
Other businesses and employees of the Ministry have expressed their concern over payroll which in many cases will be due next Thursday.
Ministry officials are still silent over inquiries regarding the Gringotts Charter of 1707 and what discussions have taken place with the Goblins of Gringotts.
