Ceist:

402 Mr. Gregory asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform when the review group considering requests for the provision of closed circuit television will report its decisions to the Garda Síochána; if a proposal was made by Garda personnel some time ago that Garda closed circuit television be installed on the main bridges of the Dublin city stretch of the Royal Canal and Tolka River, for example, at locations (details supplied); and, if so, when a decision will be made.

Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform (Mr. McDowell)

The CCTV advisory committee that was established by the Garda Commissioner to advise on CCTV matters has received a report from the chief superintendent, Dublin metropolitan region north central division, which encompasses the areas in question, outlining the CCTV requirements of the division. The advisory committee is still considering this report and is not in a position to make recommendations on the matter to the commissioner at present.
