I have one follow-up question related to ballistic testing. I will have to research whether standard practice is to privatise testing, but if the licensed firearms community was asked to provide a photograph or digital record of a certain quality and a report of a certain quality to An Garda Síochána or a civilian authority at a specific cost of approximately €200 for a new firearm licence, would it be prepared to bear the cost itself? The last thing I want to do is put more cost onto the budgets of An Garda Síochána. I would much rather that would go into front-line services.
