Garda CCTV systems are planned and implemented on the basis of An Garda Síochána's identified operational requirements. Accordingly, decisions in relation to the introduction or extension of such systems are a matter for the Garda Commissioner.
In that context, I am advised by the Garda authorities that they are currently examining the installation of a Garda CCTV system in Ballina. The Deputy will appreciate that progress in relation to this matter will depend upon overall policing requirements and the availability of resources.
