Anti-money laundering act

I've come across http://www.oireachtas.ie/documents/bills28/acts/2004/2104.pdf (CENTRAL BANK AND FINANCIAL SERVICES AUTHORITY OF IRELAND ACT 2004), but that seems to be dealing with money-laundering in the realms of setting up a bureau de change, etc. Does anyone know if this is the act that covers consumers as well?

Try the Consumer Credit Act, 1995 or the Criminal Justice Act, 1994 (as amended)
