My Department has developed the community based CCTV scheme, the purpose of which is to support local communities who wish to install and maintain CCTV security systems in their area.

My Department does not operate a scheme for persons who wish to install a CCTV system on their private property. I would urge the persons referred to by the Deputy to contact An Garda Síochána concerning the problems they are experiencing, if they have not already done so.
