Only last week, a woman in Dundalk was sexually assaulted. The Minister for Justice and Equality, Deputy Flanagan, has given €1 million in grant aid for CCTV in all villages and towns. The Government needs to look at local authorities' views.

Most local authorities agree with the use of CCTV. Were it not for CCTV, there would not have been any convictions for the murder of Ana Kriégel. Will the Tánaiste outline what we can do to get more CCTV in villages and towns in order to stop predators and allow people going for walks, etc., to feel safe?
