I understand from the response provided by the Tánaiste to parliamentary question numbers 37 to 39 of 11 May 2017 that the Courts Service is not in a position to provide the courts data requested in the Deputy's questions, as the Courts Service systems cannot differentiate between "Speed Vans" operated by the named company and those operated by An Garda Síochána.

My Department has, again, requested the information in relation to Fixed Charge Notices (FCNs) outlined in the Deputy's current question and will provide this information directly to the Deputy once it is to hand.
