It seems quite excessive.

On An Garda Síochána's GoSafe contract, while I appreciate the acting Garda Commissioner's remarks in regard to saving lives and understand how important this is to all of us, in terms of European comparators, driving behaviour, roads infrastructure and cars in Ireland have improved and, as such, we cannot be certain that the improvement in road deaths and so on is down to the camera project. Given that the project has run over budget - it will come in this year at approximately €12 million over budget - and the fact that the number of penalty points being awarded is not at the level we would like, is it wise to continue with the GoSafe project? It appears to me that there is a better return on investment from the Gatso vans operated by An Garda Síochána.
