I propose to take Questions Nos. 242 and 255 together.

I am advised by the Garda authorities that installation of the CCTV system for Athlone is nearing completion. Civil Works are being completed in the Garda station to accommodate monitoring and the system is under going final testing. It is expected that the system will be commissioned before the end of November, subject to the civil works proceeding on schedule.
