What are the barriers to delivering that because we had Conor Faughnan in last week telling us that the ANPR recognition system that was installed in all the Garda vehicles is virtually useless because one in four hits they were getting for a car that was neither taxed nor insured was producing data that was not correct.
For example, the Garda got a flag of a vehicle that was not insured and then it turned out that it was insured. There are obviously difficulties there. We are all sitting here with phones in our pockets that are more powerful than computers that were guiding aircraft 20 years ago. What is the problem here?
