KERRY Sinn Féin TD Pa Daly has expressed serious reservations about plans to expand the use of licence-plate scanning technology by the gardaí. Deputy Daly outlined his concerns about the technology during a recent Dáil debate on the proposed Garda Síochána Recording Devices Bill 2022. Deputy Daly, a solicitor by trade, then outlined the story of one of his previous clients in Tralee. “The Bill enhances the circumstances in which automatic number plate recognition, (ANPR), may be used by An Garda Síochána. ANPR allows An Garda Síochána to track the movement of vehicles, potentially preventing crime and saving people from serious harm.
