I thank the Garda Commissioner and the assistant commissioner for coming in today. The first contribution focused on static cameras and the measures that are vitally important. I can attest personally to the success of the average speed camera in the Dublin Port tunnel, which got me a couple of points on my licence four years ago. It was a lesson well learned. It was twice in a week during the general election in 2020. They have naturally expired now. The cameras do work and it is good to see a business case being made for 100-plus static cameras. Is there any idea of what the cost would be for one new static camera?
