I move amendment No. 36:

In page 15, between lines 21 and 22, to insert the following: “(2) In making an application under subsection (1), the member shall have regard to the necessity and proportionality of the measure pursuant to an order under this section, taking into account the impact of such on the fundamental rights of individuals.”.

This issues is similar to previous ones. This relates to searches of ANPR data by An Garda Síochána. The issue here is that the principles of necessity and proportionality and the impact of the measure on people’s fundamental rights should be considered in all of these matters. That is all that needs to be said about it at this point.
