The figures for the number of on-the-spot-fines and Fixed Charge Notices issued by An Garda Síochána are available in the relevant Garda Annual Reports, copies of which are available in the Oireachtas library.
I am informed by the Garda authorities that the Garda Fixed Charge Processing System (FCPS) commenced rollout in 2005. I am also informed that An Garda Síochána issues Fine on the Spot (FOTS) notices on behalf of local authorities in respect of breaches of bye-laws enacted by those local authorities, in particular for litter, drinking in a public place etc. Statistics for such Fines on the Spot are compiled by the appropriate local authority.
