Ms Paula Hilman:

It is as well; of course it is, or if a garda sees it. The Deputy has given us an example. There is that as well, and if we are seeing the offence ourselves. Again, it is back to what was said earlier about it being at the discretion of each individual member as to how he or she deals with the offence that has been reported to him or her. It is also about being able to have that type of non-intercept detection, where it is recorded, there does not have to be that engagement, and the technology can be used in addition to the Garda and local authorities, as happens in other jurisdictions as well.
