Can we ask whether legislation is needed? Related to CCTV, I am also chasing up the red light camera issue. I had been told by the Department of Transport that it can be rolled out because it is all automated and is not looking at people but at licence plates. However, just in the past week or so I have been told that legislation may be needed there. We are very far behind other countries on this. It seems to be falling between a number of Departments and nobody is moving on it. If we could at least get a straight answer about whether legislation is required, that would be of some use.
