I am informed by the Garda authorities that four Garda Stations currently have fully commissioned and operational internal Audio/Visual CCTV systems installed. The systems cover public areas and custody areas but cameras are not located in individual cells.
Station | No of Cameras | Operational date |
Store Street | 10 | 17/03/2005 |
Pearse Street | 11 | 17/03/2005 |
Bridewell Prisoner custody area | 31 | 08/05/2009 |
Letterkenny | 10 | 15/10/2009 |
In addition, internal CCTV systems are being installed in 15 further Garda Stations around the country and it is planned to have these works completed by the end of 2012. These stations are as follows:
