Vehicle Licence Detection Units
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what criteria are used to determine the siting of mobile vehicle licence detection units in Northern Ireland.
- Answer
-
Mobile vehicle detection is undertaken by automatic number plate reader (ANPRs) units. ANPRs are deployed on a rolling programme across Northern Ireland. The main criterion is to maximise the potential to detect unlicensed vehicles but recognising the need to ensure that the siting does not cause a traffic hazard.ANPRs are also deployed as requested by PSNI to assist in joint exercises with other enforcement authorities.
