Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 24 July 2018
834. Deputy Jim O'Callaghan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the status of the CCTV scheme at the M8-M7 motorway junction at Littleton, County Tipperary; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [33429/18]
View answerAs the Deputy will appreciate, under the Garda Síochána Act 2005, as amended, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for authorisation of CCTV systems in specified circumstances.
I would note that the CCTV scheme referred to by the Deputy is not a scheme for which an application has to date been made to my Department for funding under the community CCTV grant aid scheme.
I have consulted with the Garda Commissioner in connection with the matter and will write to the Deputy when the specific information requested is to hand.
