Mr. Michael Horan:

There have been problems with the ANPR system. The ANPR, automatic number plate recognition, system is an exercise to help the gardaí enforce road traffic legislation on uninsured driving. The idea is that by feeding data into the system for gardaí, they would be able to tell whether a vehicle was insured or not with their hand-held devices. That is how it works. There have been some data problems with it.
