The details requested form an integral part of security arrangements in my Department's facilities. Accordingly, I am not in a position to provide the details sought as disclosing such information relating to CCTV systems and their capabilities could potentially compromise the security of the buildings, Department staff and visitor safety.

Regarding dissemination of recorded footage, any such instances are done so in accordance with An Garda Síochána Data Access Requests through a formal 41(b) application.
