As the Deputy will be aware, the Garda Commissioner is responsible by law for the management of An Garda Síochána, including the equipping of Garda vehicles. As Minister, I have no direct role in these matters.

However, to be of assistance I sought the information requested by the Deputy from An Garda Síochána and have been advised that An Garda Síochána do not use Puma automatic number plate recognition detection equipment.
