Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 539 and 563 together.
I understand that Parliamentary Question No 829 of 26 May 2026 refers to "the number of motorists caught exceeding the speed limit on a static camera at locations (details supplied), since 30 May 2025, in tabular form."
The information could not be obtained in the time available, and I undertook to contact you again when the requested information was received from the Garda authorities. This information has subsequently been collated; I apologise for the delay in providing a response to your question.
The Garda Commissioner is responsible for the management and administration of An Garda Síochána under Section 33 of the Policing, Security and Community Safety Act 2024 including all operational policing matters. As Minister, I play no role in these independent functions.
The Garda authorities have provided the below table which shows a breakdown of the number of fixed charge notices issued for speed detections at the following static speed camera locations for the period from 30 May 2025 to 30 April 2026:
