313. Deputy James Geoghegan asked the Minister for Justice further to Parliamentary Question No. 547 of 25 March 2025, if the information could be provided; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18301/25]
View answerI refer to Parliamentary Question No. 547 of 25 March 2025 where you sought:
“To ask the Minister for Justice the number of CCTV cameras located within the Dublin metropolitan region operated by An Garda Síochána between 2020 and to date in 2025, in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter."
As you will recall, I sought the information from the Garda authorities and undertook to contact you again once the information was to hand.
I have been informed by the Garda authorities that there are currently 209 CCTV Cameras in the Dublin Metropolitan area, which are authorised by the Garda Commissioner.
The quantity of cameras varies from time to time as a result of moves, additions and due to changes resulting from building works in Dublin.
The table below provides a breakdown of the number of cameras across Dublin.
