I propose to take Questions Nos. 82 and 84 together.
The Commissioners of Public Works, OPW, have issued licences to install telecommunications equipment on masts at Garda Stations to the following companies, all of which are licensed by ComReg to provide services in Ireland:
- Three Ireland (Hutchison) Ltd.;
- Three Ireland Services (Hutchison) Ltd. (formerly O2 Ireland Ltd);
- Vodafone Ireland Ltd.;
- Meteor Mobile Communications Ltd. (now known as eir);
- Tetra Ireland Ltd.
These licences are for the provision of digital radio services to An Garda Síochána and other emergency services and as a result of this a licence fee is not payable.
The table shows the number of companies licensed at each location. All licences are granted by OPW and are generally for a ten-year term. All licence fees are payable to OPW and are subject to VAT. The fees are initially lodged to OPW, and subsequently 15% plus VAT of the annual licence fees are paid to OPW’s agent for managing the sites on OPW’s behalf and 30% is transferred to the Department of Justice & Equality.
