281. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality if the different variations of speeding camera vans that are in use here require clear identification; if the vans are meant to be adequately marked; the regulations and guidelines surrounding the identification of the vans; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I am informed by the Garda authorities that there is no legal requirement for members of An Garda Síochána to use marked vehicles when conducting speed enforcement, or that the vehicles be visible to oncoming traffic. As a matter of Garda policy safety camera vans operated by the outsource service provider, GoSafe, are fully marked when enforcing speeding offences. I am further informed that Garda safety camera vans are used both overtly and covertly. Similarly, speed enforcement may be carried out by Garda personnel when using marked and unmarked cars and marked motorcycles.
